Order-disorder oscillations in exciton-polariton superfluids
arXiv:1208.4886 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.026401
Abstract
The dynamics of an exciton-polariton superfluid resonantly pumped in a semiconductor microcavity are investigated by mean-field theory. Modulational instability develops into crystalline order and then ordered and disordered states alternately form. A supersolid-like state is also found, in which superflow coexists with crystalline order at rest.
