A novel experimental optical method, based on photoluminescence and photo-induced resonant reflection techniques, is used to investigate the spin transport over long distances in a new, recently discovered collective state—magnetofermionic condensate. The given Bose–Einstein condensate exists in a purely fermionic system (ν = 2 quantum Hall insulator) due to the presence of a non-equilibrium ensemble of spin-triplet magnetoexcitons—composite bosons. It is found that the condensate can spread over macroscopically long distances of approximately 200 μm. The propagation velocity of long-lived spin excitations is measured to be 25 m/s.
