Article Synopsis
  • Manipulating bosonic condensates with electric fields is tough because the fields don't directly affect neutral particles, but this study presents a method to control exciton-polariton condensates using electric fields in liquid crystal microcavities.
  • The researchers showed that by applying voltages between 1 to 10 V, they could create vortices with different topological charges in the condensates, utilizing the interplay of potential gradients and liquid crystal properties.
  • This work not only enhances understanding of electric control in polariton systems at room temperature but also opens opportunities for developing micron-sized optical devices that can manipulate light for advanced information processing and photonic circuits.

Spin-orbit coupling plays an important role in the spin Hall effect and topological insulators. Bose-Einstein condensates with spin-orbit coupling show remarkable quantum phase transition. In this work we control an exciton polariton condensate - a macroscopically coherent state of hybrid light and matter excitations - by virtue of the Rashba-Dresselhaus (RD) spin-orbit coupling.

Although organic polariton condensation has been recently demonstrated, they only utilize the photon part of polaritons and ignore the excitonic contribution because the polariton-polariton and polariton-reservoir interactions are weak in organic microcavities owing to the absence of Coulomb exchange-interactions between Frenkel excitons. We demonstrate highly efficient and strongly polarization-dependent polariton condensates in a microcavity consisting of an H-aggregate organic single-crystalline microbelt sandwiched between two silver reflectors. Benefitting from the advantages of vibronic coupling in H-aggregates and heavy exciton-like polaritons, both macroscopic coherent polariton ground-state population and high-energy quantized-modes are observed.
