Exciton-polariton topological insulator

S Klembt, TH Harder, OA Egorov, K Winkler, R Ge… - Nature, 2018 - nature.com
Topological insulators—materials that are insulating in the bulk but allow electrons to flow
on their surface—are striking examples of materials in which topological invariants are …

Polaritonic devices

TCH Liew, IA Shelykh, G Malpuech - Physica E: Low-dimensional Systems …, 2011 - Elsevier
We review the current hopes for applications of exciton–polaritons in semiconductor

A fiber Fabry–Perot cavity with high finesse

D Hunger, T Steinmetz, Y Colombe… - New Journal of …, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
We have realized a fiber-based Fabry–Perot cavity with CO 2 laser-machined mirrors. It
combines very small size, high finesse, small waist and mode volume, and good mode …

[图书][B] The defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation: from dark solitons to vortices and vortex rings

The phenomenon of Bose–Einstein condensation is a phase transition originally predicted
by Bose and Einstein in 1924. In particular, it was shown that below a critical temperature T …

Exact steady state of a Kerr resonator with one-and two-photon driving and dissipation: Controllable Wigner-function multimodality and dissipative phase transitions

N Bartolo, F Minganti, W Casteels, C Ciuti - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
