Scientists create an ‘optical conveyor belt’ for quasiparticles

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics

An “optical conveyor belt” that can move polaritons—a type of light-matter hybrid particle—in semiconductor-based microcavities.


This asymmetric response of the confined polaritons breaks , driving non-reciprocity and the formation of a topological .

Photonic states with topological properties can be used in advanced opto-electronic devices where topology might greatly improve the performance of optical devices, circuits, and networks, such as by reducing noise and lasing threshold powers, and dissipationless optical waveguiding.
