TLDR
The low-loss photonlike propagation combined with strong nonlinearities associated with their excitonic component makes polariton-based transistors particularly attractive for the implementation of all-optical integrated circuits.Abstract:
A polariton condensate transistor switch is realized through optical excitation of a microcavity ridge with two beams. The ballistically ejected polaritons from a condensate formed at the source are gated using the 20 times weaker second beam to switch on and off the flux of polaritons. In the absence of the gate beam the small built-in detuning creates a potential landscape in which ejected polaritons are channelled toward the end of the ridge where they condense. The low-loss photonlike propagation combined with strong nonlinearities associated with their excitonic component makes polariton-based transistors particularly attractive for the implementation of all-optical integrated circuits.read more

Signatures of a dissipative phase transition in photon correlation measurements
TL;DR: In this paper, photon correlation measurements were used to characterize the critical slowing down of non-equilibrium dynamics in a driven-dissipative system, which can be described as a first-order dissipative phase transition.
