Here is an animation showing #polariton formation: an exciton (electron-hole pair) recombines into a photon, which bounces on the cavity mirrors until reabsorbed to form an exciton. The process repeats to form a superposition of photon and exciton states: an exciton polariton.

Skoltech researchers have patented a way to switch a peculiar macroscopic state of light known as polariton Bose-Einstein condensate at room temperature using nothing but a single photon. The associated study came out earlier in @Nature: nature.com/articles/s4158…

Just a quick reminder about our seminar tomorrow! It should be a good one 🙂

Happy to restart the Polaritonics Seminar Series, with a talk by Prof. Nir Davidson on "Solving computational problems with coupled lasers". Should be a good one! Thursday 08/09 at 10:00 UK / 11:00 CET. As usual all welcome. Link and more details here: polaritonics.org/seminar-pages/…

Don't forget our seminar tomorrow! As usual, all welcome.

Our next speaker in the Polaritonics Seminar Series will be Prof. Sebastian Klembt on the 30th of June, he will be discussing his work on topological photonics and lasers with coupled vertical resonators. More info and link on the event page: polaritonics.org/seminar-pages/…

Very happy to say that our work (once more 😊) made the cover of PRL! In this article we demonstrate and study the spontaneous formation of a nonlinear vortex cluster state in a microcavity exciton-polariton condensate. journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

Very happy to see our review paper pn polariton computing published in Nature Review Physics. A lot of exciting results have been coming out in the past few years, it's trully a great time to be in polaritonics! nature.com/articles/s4225…

@Catheri31008624 Thank you!

@lagoudakis_p Great job

Our last seminar by Dr. Baranov (MIPT, Moscow) is now online on our YouTube channel. Check it out if you'd like to know more about meta-atoms and chiral resonators! Very interesting talk :). youtube.com/watch?v=LM_eBL…

New review paper with @SchneiderQMat, @lagoudakis_p and other great colleagues. Check it out! nature.com/articles/s4225…

This Thursday at 12 MSK time (10 CET) we will have the pleasure to listen to Dr. Denis Baranov present his work on "Meta-atoms and chiral resonators for new optical vacua". More details and zoom link on the event page: polaritonics.org/seminar-pages/…

New PRL is out: we study condensate pseudospin mean-field dynamics using polarization tomography on photon correlations in a spinor exciton-polariton condensate to show transition from a highly coherent to a super-thermal state. journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

This paper was a long time coming! Here we show a practical application for the polariton simulator that we demonstrated back in 2017 by solving the NP-hard max-3-cut, with is directly needed for image-segmentation tasks and circuit design optimisation! journals.aps.org/prapplied/abst…

Unfortunately the seminar of Elena Ostrovskaya that was scheduled tomorrow is cancelled, due to personal reasons. We will try to reschedule in the near future. Stay tuned :).

I'm happy to announce that Prof. Elena Ostrovskaya will be speaking this Thursday as part of our Polaritonics Seminar Series. She'll discuss her work on "Room-temperature exciton polaritons in monolayer WS2". All details on the event page: polaritonics.org/seminar-pages/…

In our new PRL, we show analytical theory for non-equilibrium room-temp exciton-polariton BEC which reveals quantum correlations between the states and predicts cooling of the polariton gas above condensation threshold. More info here: journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

Amazing spiral. I think this was the subliminal motivation for the #fibonacci spiral of light(-matter, aka polariton BEC) that we made in #skoltech 🤣
