Collective excitation profiles and the dynamics of photonic condensates
Benjamin T. Walker, Henry J. Hesten, Robert A. Nyman +1
Photonic condensates are complex systems exhibiting phase transitions due to the interaction with their molecular environment. Given the macroscopic number of molecules that form a…
Non-critical slowing down of photonic condensation
Benjamin T. Walker, Henry J. Hesten, Himadri S. Dhar +2
We investigate the response of a photonic gas interacting with a reservoir of pumped dye-molecules to quenches in the pump power. In addition to the expected dramatic critical slow…
Driven-dissipative, non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensation of just a few photons
Benjamin T. Walker, Lucas C. Flatten, Henry J. Hesten +5
Coherence is a defining feature of quantum condensates. These condensates are inherently multimode phenomena and in the macroscopic limit it becomes extremely difficult to resolve…
Decondensation in non-equilibrium photonic condensates: when less is more
Henry J. Hesten, Robert A. Nyman, Florian Mintert
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 condensa…
Spatiotemporal coherence of non-equilibrium multimode photon condensates
Jakov Marelic, Lydia F. Zajiczek, Henry J. Hesten +4
We report on the observation of quantum coherence of Bose-Einstein condensed photons in an optically-pumped, dye-filled microcavity. We find that coherence is long-range in space a…
