Generation, propagation and control of quantized vortices and dark solitons in polariton superfluids

Anne Maître

Exciton-polaritons are quasi-particles arising from the strong coupling regime between excitons and photons. In planar microcavitites, phenomena such as superfluidity or Bose-Einst…

Spontaneous generation, enhanced propagation and optical imprinting of quantized vortices and dark solitons in a polariton superfluid: towards the control of quantum turbulence

Anne Maitre, Ferdinand Claude, Giovani Lerario +7

In resonantly pumped polariton superfluids we recently explored a new regime based on the bistability of the polariton system to enhance the propagation of polariton fluids up to m…

Taming the snake instabilities in a polariton superfluid

Ferdinand Claude, Sergei V. Koniakhin, Anne Maître +8

The dark solitons observed in a large variety of nonlinear media are unstable against the modulational (snake) instabilities and can break in vortex streets. This behavior has been…

Microcavity Polaritons for Quantum simulation

Thomas Boulier, Maxime J. Jacquet, Anne Maître +8

Quantum simulations are one of the pillars of quantum technologies. These simulations provide insight in fields as varied as high energy physics, many-body physics, or cosmology to…

Parallel dark soliton pair in a bistable 2D exciton-polariton superfluid

Giovanni Lerario, Sergei V. Koniakhin, Anne Maître +7

Collective excitations, such as vortex-antivortex and dark solitons, are among the most fascinating effects of macroscopic quantum states. However, 2D dark solitons are unstable an…

Polariton fluids for analogue gravity physics

M. J. Jacquet, T. Boulier, F. Claude +8

Analogue gravity enables the study of fields on curved spacetimes in the laboratory. There are numerous experimental platforms in which amplification at the event horizon or the er…

Vortex stream generation and enhanced propagation in a polariton superfluid

Giovanni Lerario, Anne Maître, Rajiv Boddeda +4

In this work, we implement a new experimental configuration which exploits the specific properties of the optical bistability exhibited by the polariton system and we demonstrate t…

Dark-soliton molecules in an exciton-polariton superfluid

Anne Maître, Giovanni Lerario, Adrià Medeiros +5

The general theory of dark solitons relies on repulsive interactions and therefore predicts the impossibility to form dark-soliton bound states. One important exception to this pre…

Stationary quantum vortex street in a driven-dissipative quantum fluid of light

S. V. Koniakhin, O. Bleu, D. D. Stupin +8

We investigate the formation of a new class of density-phase defects in a resonantly driven 2D quantum fluid of light. The system bistability allows the formation of low density re…
