Spontaneous patterns in coherently driven polariton microcavities
Spontaneous patterns in coherently driven polariton microcavities
We consider a polariton microcavity resonantly driven by two external lasers which simultaneously pump both lower and upper polariton branches at normal incidence. In this setup, we study the occurrence of instabilities of the pump-only solutions towards the spontaneous formation of patterns. Their appearance is a consequence of the spontaneous …
