Decondensation in non-equilibrium photonic condensates: when less is more
arXiv:1705.02173 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.120.040601
Abstract
We investigate the steady state of a system of photons in a pumped dye-filled microcavity. By varying pump and thermalization the system can be tuned between Bose-Einstein condensation, multimode condensation, and lasing. We present a rich non-equilibrium phase diagram which exhibits transitions between these phases, including decondensation of individual modes under conditions that would typically favor condensation.
