Abstract The study of Bose–Einstein condensation effects in photonic systems has revealed
a rich phenomenology related to spontaneous coherence generation in driven-dissipative …

Recently a new type of system exhibiting spontaneous coherence has emerged—the
exciton–polariton condensate. Exciton–polaritons (or polaritons for short) are bosonic …

Highly uniform and ordered nanodot arrays are crucial for high-performance quantum
optoelectronics, including new semiconductor lasers and single-photon emitters, and for …

Heterostructures comprising different monolayer semiconductors provide an attractive
setting for fundamental science and device technologies, such as in the emerging field of …

Topological photonics is a rapidly emerging field of research in which geometrical and
topological ideas are exploited to design and control the behavior of light. Drawing …

This article reviews recent theoretical and experimental advances in the fundamental
understanding and active control of quantum fluids of light in nonlinear optical systems. In …

In recent years, two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials have emerged as a focal
point in materials research, drawing increasing attention due to their potential for isolating …

In the past decade, a two-dimensional matter-light system called the microcavity exciton-
polariton has emerged as a new promising candidate of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) …

Under the right conditions, cavity polaritons form a macroscopic condensate in the ground
state. The fascinating nonlinear behaviour of this condensate is largely dictated by the …

We demonstrate that a single layer of MoSe 2 encapsulated by hexagonal boron nitride can
act as an electrically switchable mirror at cryogenic temperatures, reflecting up to 85% of …
