Polariton Condensation with Localized Excitons and Propagating Photons
Polariton Condensation with Localized Excitons and Propagating Photons
We estimate the condensation temperature for microcavity polaritons, allowing for their internal structure. We consider polaritons formed from localised excitons in a planar microcavity, using a generalised Dicke model. At low densities, we find a condensation temperature T_c \propto \rho, as expected for a gas of structureless polaritons. However, as …
