Polariton lasing vs. photon lasing in a semiconductor microcavity

TL;DR: A series of experimental studies of a polariton laser are presented, exploring its properties as a relatively dense degenerate Bose gas and comparing it to a photon laser achieved in the same structure, finding its properties are similar to those of a normal photon laser.

Strong coupling phenomena in quantum microcavity structures

TL;DR: The physics of strong coupling phenomena in semiconductor quantum microcavities is reviewed in this paper, with most important developments having occurred in the last 5 years, and the results of reflectivity experiments at both normal and oblique angles of incidence, the effects of external electric and magnetic fields, and results of coherent Raman scattering experiments, including the observation of motional narrowing over the exciton disorder potential.
