Dissipative solitons and vortices in polariton Bose-Einstein condensates
Dissipative solitons and vortices in polariton Bose-Einstein condensates
We examine spatial localization and dynamical stability of Bose-Einstein condensates of exciton polaritons in microcavities under the condition of off-resonant spatially inhomogeneous optical pumping both with and without a harmonic trapping potential. We employ the open-dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii model for describing an incoherently pumped polariton condensate coupled to an exciton reservoir, …
