Bistability, or the coexistence of two stable phases, can be broken by a bias field $h$ destabilising one of the phases via the nucleation and growth of defects. Strong long-range interactions, $1/r^\alpha$ with $\alpha$ less than the…
We demonstrate that Hilbert-space quantization in polariton lattices-manifested as multiple quantized energy levels in strongly confined sites-provides an unconventional route to realizing and manipulating different quantum phases. We show…
