Thresholdless corner vortex solitons in fractal Sierpiński topological insulators

Yiqi Zhang, Alexander V. Kireev, Victor O. Kompanets +12

Quantized vortices are ubiquitous in physics, spanning superconductivity, astrophysics, superfluid condensed matter systems, and nonlinear optics. Yet embedding vorticity into topo…

Coherence Revivals and Lifetime Extension of Polariton Condensates by Mirror-Mediated Self-Feedback

I. Smirnov, S. Alyatkin, P. G. Lagoudakis

Temporal coherence of driven-dissipative condensates is limited by phase noise. We show that mirror-mediated time-delayed self-feedback enables control of coherence in a trapped ex…

Kardar-Parisi-Zhang physics in optically-confined continuous polariton condensates

Mikhail Misko, Natalia Starkova, Pavlos G. Lagoudakis

Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) scaling has been observed in discrete polariton lattices, enabled by engineered band structures that stabilize the condensate. Whether this universality e…

Observation of topological vortex solitons on disclinations

A. V. Kireev, K. Sabour, V. O. Kompanets +13

Vortex-carrying wave fields play a crucial role in photonics due to unusual propagation properties and interactions with matter, which enable numerous practical applications rangin…

Single-Shot Flow Spectroscopy of a Polariton Condensate: Kibble-Zurek and Kolmogorov-Like Scaling

Ivan Krasionov, Anton Putintsev, Maksim Kolker +3

Quantized vortices are fundamental topological excitations of quantum fluids. We report single-shot interferometric measurements of spontaneous vortex nucleation in a room-temperat…

Mapping the strong-to-weak coupling crossover in polymer-film microcavity lasers

Denis A. Sannikov, Nailya M. Urazova, Maksim D. Kolker +10

Organic semiconductors are particularly attractive for polaritonics due to their large exciton binding energies and oscillator strengths. Among them, the ladder-type conjugated pol…
