Merging of vortices and antivortices in polariton superfluids
Emiliano Cancellieri, Thomas Boulier, Romain Hivet +6
Quantised vortices are remarkable manifestations on a macroscopic scale of the coherent nature of quantum fluids, and the study of their properties is of fundamental importance for…
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…
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…
Spin rings in bi-stable planar semiconductor microcavities
C. Adrados, A. Amo, T. C. H. Liew +5
A unique feature of exciton-polaritons, inherited from their mixed light-matter origin, is the strongly spin-dependent polariton-polariton interaction, which has been predicted to…
