Statistics of excitons in quantum dots and the resulting microcavity emission spectra

A theoretical investigation is presented of the statistics of excitons in quantum dots (QDs) of different sizes. A formalism is developed to build the exciton creation operator in a dot from the single exciton wavefunction and it is shown how this operator evolves from purely fermionic, in case of a small QD, to purely bosonic, in case of large QDs. Nonlinear optical emission spectra of semiconductor microcavities containing single QDs are found to exhibit a peculiar multiplet structure which reduces to Mollow triplet and Rabi doublet in fermionic and bosonic limits, respectively.

Order parameter dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate of exciton-polaritons in semiconductor microcavities

It is shown theoretically that Bose condensation of spin-degenerated exciton-polaritons results in spontaneous buildup of the linear polarization in emission spectra of semiconductor microcavities. The linear polarization degree is a good order parameter for the polariton Bose condensation. If spin-degeneracy is lifted, an elliptically polarized light is emitted by the polariton condensate. The main axis of the ellipse rotates in time due to self-induced Larmor precession of the polariton condensate pseudospin. The polarization decay time is governed by the dephasing induced by the polariton-polariton interaction and strongly depends on the statistics of the condensed state.
