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…
Light Engineering of the Polariton Landscape in Semiconductor Microcavities
A Amo, S Pigeon, C Adrados +4
We demonstrate a method to create potential barriers with polarized light beams for polaritons in semiconductor microcavities. The form of the barriers is engineered via the real s…
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…
