Bose-Einstein condensation of photons with nonlocal nonlinearity in a dye-doped graded-index microcavity

Marcello Calvanese Strinati, Claudio Conti

We consider a microcavity made by a graded-index (GRIN) glass, doped by dye molecules, placed within two planar mirrors and study Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of photons. The p…
