Realization of all-optical vortex switching in exciton-polariton condensates

Xuekai Ma, Bernd Berger, Marc Assmann +5

Vortices are topological objects representing the circular motion of a fluid. With their additional degree of freedom, the 'vorticity', they have been widely investigated in many p…

Distinct terahertz third-harmonic generation of many-body excitonic states

Changqing Zhu, Anneke Reinold, Patrick Pilch +6

The dynamics of an electron-hole plasma governed by strong Coulomb interaction is a challenging many-body problem.We report on experimental realization of electron-hole many-body s…

Splitting spin-orbit coupled polariton vortex pairs in the non-Hermitian Rashba-Dresselhaus band at room temperature

Xiaokun Zhai, Ying Gao, Xuekai Ma +6

Spin orbit coupling gives rise to intriguing physical phenomena in bosonic condensates, such as formation of stripe phases and domains with vortex arrays. However, how the non-Herm…

Ultrafast dynamics of optically excited charge carriers in the room-temperature antiferromagnetic semiconductor -MnTe

Changqing Zhu, Patrick Pilch, Anneke Reinold +6

We report on time-resolved optical and terahertz ultrafast spectroscopy of charge-carrier dynamics in the room-temperature antiferromagnetic semiconductor -MnTe. By optically p…

33 Gbit/s source-device-independent quantum random number generator based on heterodyne detection with real-time FPGA-integrated extraction

Marius Cizauskas, Hamid Tebyanian, Mark Fox +3

We present a high-speed continuous-variable quantum random number generator (QRNG) based on heterodyne detection of vacuum fluctuations. The scheme follows a source-device-independ…

Stochastic pumping of a polariton fluid

Marc Assmann, Manfred Bayer

We investigate the response of a polariton laser driven slightly off-resonantly using light fields differing from the routinely studied coherent pump sources. The response to drivi…
