Confinement-deconfinement transition due to spontaneous symmetry breaking in quantum Hall bilayers

Electronic systems with inverted band structures can support exotic topological insulator and exciton condensate states. Here, the authors demonstrate the formation of a helical exciton condensate in quantum Hall bilayers, and a quark-like quasiparticle confinement-deconfinement transition.
