In this Chapter we address the physics of Bose-Einstein condensation and its implications to a driven-dissipative system such as the polariton laser. We discuss the dynamics of exciton-polaritons non-resonantly pumped within a microcavity in the strong coupling regime. It is shown how the stimulated scattering of exciton-polaritons leads to formation of bosonic condensates that may be stable at elevated temperatures, including room temperature.

Experimental And Theoretical Studies

This chapter presents experimental studies performed on planar semiconductor microcavities in the strong-coupling regime. The first section reviews linear experiments performed in the 1990s that evidence the linear optical properties of cavity exciton-polaritons. The chapter is then focused on experimental and theoretical studies of resonantly excited microcavity emission. We mainly describe experimental configuations in which stimulated scattering was observed due to formation of a dynamical condensate of polaritons. Pump-probe and cw experiments are described in addition. Dressing of the polariton dispersion and bistability of the polariton system due to inter-condensate interactions are discussed. The semiclassical and the quantum theories of these effects are presented and their results analysed. The potential for realization of devices is also discussed.

AbstractLight-matter interactions at the nanoscale constitute a fundamental ingredient for engineering applications in nanophotonics and quantum optics. In this regard, Mie resonances supported by high-refractive index dielectric nanoparticles have recently attracted interest, due to their lower losses and better control over the scattering patterns compared to their plasmonic counterparts. The emergence of several resonances in high-refractive index dielectric nanoparticles results in an overall high complexity, where the electric and magnetic dipoles can show a significant spectral overlap, especially at optical frequencies, thus hindering possible light-matter coupling mechanisms arising in the optical spectrum. This behavior can be properly adjusted by using non-spherical geometries, an approach that has already been successfully exploited to tune directional scattering from dielectric nanoresonators. Here, by using cylindrical nanoparticles, we show, experimentally and theoretically, the emergence of peak splitting for both magnetic and electric dipole resonances of individual silicon nanodisks coupled to a J-aggregated organic semiconductor. In the two cases, we find that the different character of the involved resonances leads to different light-matter coupling regimes. Crucially, our results show that the observed energy splittings are of the same order of magnitude as the ones reported using similar plasmonic systems, thereby confirming dielectric nanoparticles as promising alternatives for localized strong coupling studies. The coupling of both the electric and magnetic dipole resonances can offer interesting possibilities for the control of directional light scattering in the strong coupling regime and the dynamic tuning of nanoscale light-matter hybrid states by external fields.

The One

We will attempt to understand the ΔI=1/2 pattern of the nonleptonic weak decays of the kaons. The calculation scheme employed is the Strong Coupling Expansion of lattice QCD. Kogut-Susskind fermions are used in the Hamiltonian formalism. We will describe in detail the methods used to expedite this calculation, all of which was done by computer algebra. The final result is very encouraging. Even though an exact interpretation is clouded by the presence of irrelevant operators, and questions of lattice artifacts, a signal of the ΔI=1/2 rule appears to be observable. With an appropriate choice of the one free parameter, enhancements greater than those observed experimentally can be obtained. We also point out a number of surprising results which we turn up in the course of the calculation.
