Giant effective $g$-factor due to spin bifurcations in polariton condensates

We predict giant susceptibility of spin-bifurcating polariton condensates to externally applied permanent magnetic field. In the presence of spin-anisotropic polariton-polariton interactions, the condensate spontaneously takes an elliptically polarised state, {whose perturbation dynamics can be interpreted in terms of the presence of strong effective magnetic field} significantly surpassing the external one. Surprisingly, this behaviour of the addressed strongly out-of-equilibrium system in the vicinity of a critical point exhibits intriguing analogy with the second-order phase transition. The predicted field-enhancement effect can be utilized for creation of topologically nontrivial states of Bogoliubov's excitations existing on top of the polariton condensate.

Carbon nanotubes for polarization sensitive terahertz plasmonic interferometry

We report on helicity sensitive photovoltaic terahertz radiation response of a carbon nanotube made in a conguration of a field effect transistor. We find that the magnitude of the rectified voltage is different for clockwise and anticlockwise circularly polarized radiation. We demonstrate that this effect is a fingerprint of the plasma waves interference in the transistor channel. We also find that that the presence of the helicity- and phase-sensitive interference part of the photovoltaic response is a universal phenomenon which is obtained in the systems of different dimensionality with different single particle spectrum. Its magnitude is characteristic of the plasma wave decay length. This opens up a wide avenue for applications in the area of plasmonic interferometry.
