Collective fluid dynamics of a polariton condensate in a semiconductor microcavity

A Amo, D Sanvitto, FP Laussy, D Ballarini, E Valle… - Nature, 2009 - nature.com
Semiconductor microcavities offer unique systems in which to investigate the physics of
weakly interacting bosons. Their elementary excitations, polaritons—mixtures of excitons …

Persistent currents and quantized vortices in a polariton superfluid

D Sanvitto, FM Marchetti, MH Szymańska, G Tosi… - Nature Physics, 2010 - nature.com
After the discovery of zero viscosity in liquid helium, other fundamental properties of the
superfluidity phenomenon have been revealed. One of them, irrotational flow, gives rise to …

Hyperspectral infrared imaging of surface phonon-polaritons in

DJ Lahneman, MM Qazilbash - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
Polaritons have a demonstrated impact on nanophotonic applications in the midinfrared
through visible spectral range. Surface phonon-polaritons (SPhPs) offer a way to bring the …

Quantum theory and human perception of the macro-world

D Aerts - Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 - frontiersin.org
We investigate the question of 'why customary macroscopic entities appear to us humans as
they do, ie, as bounded entities occupying space and persisting through time', starting from …

Polariton pattern formation and photon statistics of the associated emission

CE Whittaker, B Dzurnak, OA Egorov, G Buonaiuto… - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
We report on the formation of a diverse family of transverse spatial polygon patterns in a
microcavity polariton fluid under coherent driving by a blue-detuned pump. Patterns emerge …

Lasing through a strongly-coupled mode by intra-cavity pumping

GM Akselrod, ER Young, MS Bradley, V Bulović - Optics Express, 2013 - opg.optica.org
We demonstrate room temperature lasing through the polaritonic mode of a J-aggregate
microcavity in which losses from exciton-exciton annihilation and slow polariton relaxation …

Polaritonic cross Feshbach resonance

M Navadeh-Toupchi, N Takemura, MD Anderson… - Physical review …, 2019 - APS
We demonstrate the existence of a cross Feshbach resonance by strongly driving a lower
polariton mode and by monitoring in time the transmission of a short optical pulse at the …

Temporal shaping and time-varying orbital angular momentum of displaced vortices

F Hosseini, MA Sadeghzadeh, A Rahmani, FP Laussy… - Optica, 2020 - opg.optica.org
The fundamental mode of rotation in quantum fluids is given by a vortex whose quantized
value yields the orbital angular momentum (OAM) per particle. If the vortex is displaced (off …

Detuning control of Rabi vortex oscillations in light-matter coupling

A Rahmani, L Dominici - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
We study analytically the dynamics of vortices in strongly coupled exciton-photon fields in
the presence of energy detuning. We derive equations for the vortex core velocity and mass …
