All-optical control of the quantum flow of a polariton superfluid
D. Sanvitto, S. Pigeon, A. Amo +12
While photons in vacuum are massless particles that do not interact with each other, significant photon-photon interactions appear in suitable nonlinear media, leading to novel hyd…
Polariton superfluids reveal quantum hydrodynamic solitons
A. Amo, S. Pigeon, D. Sanvitto +9
A quantum fluid passing an obstacle behaves differently from a classical one. When the flow is slow enough, the quantum gas enters a superfluid regime and neither whirlpools nor wa…
Interference of Degenerate Polariton Condensates in Microcavities
T C H Liew, A V Kavokin, I A Shelykh
We demonstrate theoretically that the interaction of two degenerate condensates of exciton-polaritons in microcavities leads to polarization dependent parametric oscillations. The…
Optical bistability in semiconductor microcavities in the nondegenerate parametric oscillation regime: analogy with the optical parametric oscillator
A. Baas, J. -Ph. Karr, M. Romanelli +2
We report the observation of optical bistability in a microcavity pumped at the "magic angle". Experimental evidence is given in the form of a hysteresis cycle of the nonlinear emi…
Polariton Squeezing in Semiconductor Microcavities
Jean-Philippe Karr, Augustin Baas, Romuald Houdre +1
We report squeezed polariton generation using parametric polariton four-wave mixing in semiconductor microcavities in the strong coupling regime. The geometry of the experiment cor…
Polarization squeezing in a four-level system
V. Josse, A. Dantan, A. Bramati +2
We present a theoretical study of an ensemble of X-like 4-level atoms placed in an optical cavity driven by a linearly polarized field. We show that the self-rotation (SR) process…
