Abstract
Although there is strong theoretical and experimental evidence for electron-hole superfluidity in separated sheets of electrons and holes at low , extending superfluidity to high is limited by strong two-dimensional fluctuations and Kosterlitz-Thouless effects. We show this limitation can be overcome using a superlattice of alternating electron- and hole-doped semiconductor monolayers. The superfluid transition in a three-dimensional superlattice is not topological, and for strong electron-hole pair coupling, the transition temperature can be at room temperature. As a quantitative illustration, we show can reach for a superfluid in a realistic superlattice of transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers.
