Coherent transfer of topological domain walls
arXiv:2005.06281 · doi:10.1364/OE.409715
Abstract
We demonstrate the controlled coherent transfer of topological domain walls in a one-dimensional non-Hermitian chain of interacting Bose-Einstein condensates. The topological protection stems from a spatially patterned pump in an open-dissipative system. As a testbed setup of the proposed phenomenon, we consider a chain of coupled micropillars with embedded quantum wells, possessing exciton-polariton resonances. The transfer of a domain wall is driven by spatially localised, adiabatic pump modulation in the vicinity of the domain wall. The stochastic calculations prove the coherent nature of the domain wall transfer. For appropriate system parameters the coherence degree is preserved after multiple transitions, paving the way towards long-range transfer of a coherent quantum state.
