Kibble-Zurek mechanism in topologically nontrivial zigzag chains of polariton micropillars

DD Solnyshkov, AV Nalitov, G Malpuech - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We consider a zigzag chain of coupled micropillar cavities, taking into account the
polarization of polariton states. We show that the TE-TM splitting of photonic cavity modes …

Robust platform for engineering pure-quantum-state transitions in polariton condensates

Vortex motion quantifies strong dissipation in a holographic superfluid

P Wittmer, CM Schmied, T Gasenzer, C Ewerz - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
Holographic duality provides a description of strongly coupled quantum systems in terms of
weakly coupled gravitational theories in a higher-dimensional space. It is a challenge …

Mode-locked waveguide polariton laser

H Souissi, M Gromovyi, I Septembre, V Develay… - Optica, 2024 - opg.optica.org
So far, exciton-polariton (polariton) lasers were mostly single-mode lasers based on
microcavities. Despite the large repulsive polariton-polariton interaction, a pulsed mode …

Dynamical instability of a nonequilibrium exciton-polariton condensate

N Bobrovska, M Matuszewski, KS Daskalakis… - ACS …, 2018 - ACS Publications
By imaging single-shot realizations of an organic polariton quantum fluid, we observe the
long-sought dynamical instability of nonequilibrium condensates. We find an excellent …

Driven-dissipative Bose-Einstein condensation and the upper critical dimension

Y Zhang, T Barthel - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
Driving and dissipation can stabilize Bose-Einstein condensates. Using Keldysh field theory,
we analyze this phenomenon for Markovian systems that can comprise on-site two-particle …

Stability and spatial coherence of nonresonantly pumped exciton-polariton condensates

N Bobrovska, EA Ostrovskaya, M Matuszewski - Physical Review B, 2014 - APS
We investigate the stability and coherence properties of one-dimensional exciton-polariton
condensates under nonresonant pumping. We model the condensate dynamics using the …
