Probing intermittent polariton vortex dynamics with two-point correlations

Superconducting single-photon detectors with time resolution of 80 ps have been used to study the spatiotemporal dynamics of a trapped bosonic condensate of exciton-polaritons. Both second- and first-order correlation functions are found to exhibit pronounced oscillations in time governed by the dynamics of the polariton condensate in the trap. We have identified the intermittent regime of stochastic transitions between stationary and limit-cycle regimes near the Andronov-Hopf bifurcation manifested in asymmetric distortions of the correlation function. This rich interplay of deterministic and stochastic condensate dynamics is explained theoretically as a manifestation of mutually compensating self-repulsion and reservoir-mediated attraction.

Quantum beats of a macroscopic polariton condensate in real space

We experimentally observe harmonic oscillations in a bosonic condensate of exciton-polaritons confined within an elliptical trap. These oscillations arise from quantum beats between two size-quantized states of the condensate, split in energy due to the trap's ellipticity. By precisely targeting specific spots inside the trap with nonresonant laser pulses, we control frequency, amplitude, and phase of these quantum beats. The condensate wave function dynamics is visualized on a streak camera and mapped to the Bloch sphere, demonstrating Hadamard and Pauli-Z operations. We conclude that a qubit based on a superposition of these two polariton states would exhibit a coherence time exceeding the lifetime of an individual exciton-polariton by at least two orders of magnitude.
