Abstract

From a theoretical point of view, we discuss a variety of phenomena linked to the spin and polarization degree of freedom of exciton-polaritons in semiconductor microcavities.We start with linear optical effects including the optical spin Hall effect, formation of polarization vortices and ballistic propagation of polarized exciton-polaritons.Next, the interplay between spin-dependent dynamics and Bose condensation in the 2D system of microcavity polaritons is addressed.Theoretically, this many-body system of interacting particles is described by the spinor Gross-Pitaevskii equations.These equations provide a description of the time evolution of polarized polariton fields under different conditions of optical excitation as well as an understanding of the phenomena of superfluidity, multistability and hysteresis via renormalization of the dispersion of elementary excitations.The comprehension of polarization-sensitive dynamics can be made through the introduction of several effective fields of different nature acting on the polariton pseudospin.The theory of parametric scattering of exciton-polaritons is presented, using the second quantization formalism.It is found that the combination of nonlinearity and various mechanisms of spin reorientation leads to self-organization and the formation of polarized patterns such as polarization crosses, vortices and rings.The manipulation of polariton spins can lead to various applications in signal processing, including the construction of optical logic gates and spin memory elements; the creation of spin currents; and the control of polarized signal propagation in the microcavity plane.The concept of polariton neurons is discussed in this connection.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
