Sympathetic Mechanism for Vibrational Condensation Enabled by Polariton Optomechanical Interaction (2309.08498v2)
Published 15 Sep 2023 in cond-mat.quant-gas
Abstract: We demonstrate a macro-coherent regime in exciton-polariton systems, where nonequilibrium polariton Bose--Einstein condensation coexists with macroscopically occupied vibrational states. Strong exciton-vibration coupling induces an effective optomechanical interaction between cavity polaritons and vibrational degrees of freedom of molecules, leading to vibrational amplification in a resonant blue-detuned configuration. This interaction provide a sympathetic mechanism to achieve vibrational condensation with potential applications in cavity-controlled chemistry, nonlinear and quantum optics.
