Quantum Degenerate Exciton-Polaritons in Thermal Equilibrium
arXiv:cond-mat/0604394 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.97.146402
Abstract
We study the momentum distribution and relaxation dynamics of semiconductor microcavity polaritons by angle-resolved and time-resolved spectroscopy. Above a critical pump level, the thermalization time of polaritons at positive detunings becomes shorter than their lifetime, and the polaritons form a quantum degenerate Bose-Einstein distribution in thermal equilibrium with the lattice.
