Reconfigurable ultrafast perovskite polariton logic gates via nonlinear dynamics

Exciton-polaritons provide a great platform for developing ultrafast all-optical logic gates for quantum and optical chips. However, progress toward practical polariton logic remains limited due to incomplete logical functionality on a single device. Herein, we present a single-device perovskite polariton platform enabling reconfigurable, ultrafast logic gates with functional completeness. The device consists of an optically trapped perovskite microwire, generating well-controlled non-equilibrium polariton condensation states for multiple logic operation channels. By tailoring the power of signal and gate beams, the same device is programmed to execute three basic Boolean functions (AND,OR,and NOT) and a high-order XOR function with a high on/off ratio of 21 dB, and a fast response time 6.7 ps. The reconfigurability arises from the selective activation of different nonlinear responses of polariton condensates, including amplification, seeding state transitions, and nonlinear interaction. These results provide valuable insights for advancing exciton-polariton logic gates.

Strongly Magnetically Tuned Coupling Strength and Nonlinearity in CrSBr Exciton-Polaritons

Two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) magnetic semiconductors CrSBr offer an ideal platform to achieve exciton-polaritons correlated with magnetic orders for developing solid-state quantum, spintronic, and photonic devices. However, for the exciton-polaritons formed by lower-energy excitons (XL = 1.37 eV), the coupling strength and nonlinear optical response are almost inert to the external magnetic field. Here, we demonstrate robust strong coupling between higher-energy excitons (XH = 1.8 eV) and photons that persists up to room temperature, along with giant magnetic-field tunability. The Rabi splitting energy is tuned up to 100 meV within a moderate 0.45 T in-plane magnetic field due to changes in excitonic states during the spin transitions. Besides, we observe significantly enhanced polariton nonlinearity in the intermediate magnetic phase, which exhibits a distinct mode-number dependence and originates from magnon-assisted long-range attractive interactions and coupling strength reduction. These results advance the development of on-demand polariton platforms for spin-correlated quantum optoelectronics.
