An international research partnership of state-of-the-art experimental laboratories and theoretical groups between the University of Cambridge, MIT-Skoltech, and the University of Southampton.
Polariton Circuits
Polariton Circuits
In this project we investigate the fundamental properties of spinor polariton condensates towards polariton circuits. We aim to develop the toolbox for all-optical writing of polariton circuits on planar microcavities and utilize the spin of polaritons in configuration that bear applications in all optical switching, optical routing, and volatile optical memory components.
