A Strongly Interacting Polaritonic Quantum Dot

Jia, Ningyuan, Schine, Nathan, Georgakopoulos, Alexandros et al.

Understand

Polaritons are an emerging platform for exploration of synthetic materials [1] and quantum information processing [2] that draw properties from two disparate particles: a photon and an atom.

Cavity polaritons are particularly promising, as they are long-lived and their dispersion and mass are controllable through cavity geometry [3].
To date, studies of cavity polaritons have operated in the mean-field regime, using short-range interactions between their matter components [4].
Rydberg excitations have recently been demonstrated as a promising matter-component of polaritons [5], due to their strong interactions over distances large compared to an optical wavelength.
