Organic semiconductors are promising candidates as platforms for room temperature polaritonic devices. An issue for practical implementation of organic polariton devices is the lowering of condensation threshold. Here we investigate anisotropic light-matter coupling characteristics in an organic crystal microcavity showing strong molecular orientation. Furthermore, the below-threshold excitation dynamics are investigated to clarify the spontaneous transition pathways from reservoir to polariton states. Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements reveal that photonic/excitonic hybrid transition processes coexist in the microcavity system. This finding provides valuable insights into a detailed understanding of polariton dynamics and help in the design of polaritonic devices showing a low-threshold condensed phase.

Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a developing image modality that benefits from light-matter interaction and low acoustic attenuation to provide functional information on tissue composition at relatively large depths. Several studies have reported the potential of dichroism-sensitive photoacoustic (DS-PA) imaging to expand PAI capabilities by obtaining morphological information of tissue regarding anisotropy and predominant orientation. However, most of these studies have limited their analysis to superficial scanning of samples, where fluence effects are negligible.

Multilayered van der Waals (vdW) materials are semiconductors composed of atomically thin crystal layers, held together by weak vdW forces. They offer unique crystal structures and electronic properties, distinct from conventional semiconductors, making them a promising platform for linear and nonlinear optics. In this context, the large refractive indexes given by highly polarizable transition metals, combined with excitonic resonances and unconventional crystalline structures, provides a toolbox for exploring non-linear physics and strong light-matter interactions with unprecedented opportunities for nanoscale optics.

Article Synopsis
  • Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) show promise but suffer from structural instability, particularly in high humidity, which limits their practical use.
  • Researchers discovered a method to grow nanowires (NWs) of MHP on glass surfaces under 85% humidity, allowing for tunable lengths and compositions.
  • These nanowire lasers demonstrated impressive qualities such as high quality factor and stability, opening up new possibilities for advanced optical applications.

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials exhibit strong light-matter interactions, remarkable excitonic effects, and ultrafast optical response, making them promising for high-speed on-chip nanophotonics. Recently, significant attention has been directed towards anisotropic 2D materials (A2DMs) with low in-plane crystal symmetry. These materials present unique optical properties dependent on polarization and direction, offering additional degrees of freedom absent in conventional isotropic 2D materials.

Terahertz (THz) waves have been widely hailed as a key enabling technology for future sixth generation (6G) wireless networks. Dynamic modulation of their polarization states is of great attraction for high-capacity communications and anisotropic sensing. The development of such technology is, however, still in very early stage owing to the difficulties of realizing electrical reconfigurability for THz devices.
