Dipolar polaritons squeezed at unitarity

arXiv:1905.06418 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.101.125129

Abstract

Interaction of dipolar polaritons can be efficiently tuned by means of a shape resonance in their excitonic component. Provided the resonance width is large, a squeezed population of strongly interacting polaritons may persist on the repulsive side of the resonance. We derive an analytical expression for the polariton coupling constant and show that it may have very large values in typical experimental conditions. Our arguments provide a new direction for the quest of interactions in quantum photonics.
