Interference of Degenerate Polariton Condensates in Microcavities

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2011-01-13 v1

Abstract

We demonstrate theoretically that the interaction of two degenerate condensates of exciton-polaritons in microcavities leads to polarization dependent parametric oscillations. The resonant polariton-polariton scattering is governed by the polarization of the condensates and can be fully suppressed for certain polarizations. A polarization controlled solid state optical gate is proposed.
