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…
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…
Coherent merging of counter-propagating exciton-polariton superfluids
Thomas Boulier, Simon Pigeon, Emiliano Cancellieri +4
We report the formation of a macroscopic coherent state emerging from colliding polariton fluids. Four lasers with random relative phases, arranged in a square, pump resonantly a p…
Injection of orbital angular momentum and storage of quantized vortices in polariton superfluids
Thomas Boulier, Emiliano Cancellieri, Nicolas D. Sangouard +5
We report the experimental investigation and theoretical modeling of a rotating polariton superfluid relying on an innovative method for the injection of angular momentum. This nov…
Interaction-Shaped Vortex-Antivortex Lattices in Polariton Fluids
Romain Hivet, Emiliano Cancellieri, Thomas Boulier +7
Topological defects such as quantized vortices are one of the most striking manifestations of the superfluid nature of Bose-Einstein condensates and typical examples of quantum mec…
Half-solitons in a polariton quantum fluid behave like magnetic monopoles
R. Hivet, H. Flayac, D. D. Solnyshkov +8
Monopoles are magnetic charges, point-like sources of magnetic field. Contrary to electric charges they are absent in Maxwell's equations and have never been observed as fundamenta…
