Kagome lattices supporting Dirac cone and flatband dispersions are well known as a highly frustrated, two-dimensional lattice system. Particularly the flatbands therein are attracting continuous interest based on their link to topological order, correlations and frustration. In this work, we realize coupled microcavity implementations of Kagome lattices hosting exciton-polariton quantum fluids of light. We demonstrate precise control over the dispersiveness of the flatband as well as selective condensation of exciton-polaritons into the flatband. Subsequently, we focus on the spatial and temporal coherence properties of the laser-like emission from these polariton condensates that are closely connected to the flatband nature of the system. Notably, we find a drastic increase in coherence time due to the localization of flatband condensates. Our work illustrates the outstanding suitability of the exciton-polariton system for detailed studies of flatband states as a platform for microlaser arrays in compact localized states, including strong interactions, topology and non-linearity.

We study a system of microcavity pillars arranged into a kagome lattice. We show that polarization-dependent tunnel coupling of microcavity pillars leads to the emergence of the effective spin-orbit interaction consisting of the Dresselhaus and Rashb
a terms, similar to the case of polaritonic graphene studied earlier. Appearance of the effective spin-orbit interaction combined with the time-reversal symmetry-breaking resulting from the application of the magnetic field leads to the nontrivial topological properties of the Bloch bundles of polaritonic wavefunction. These are manifested in opening of the gap in the band structure and topological edge states localized on the boundary. Such states are analogs of the edge states arising in topological insulators. Our study of polarization properties of the edge states clearly demonstrate that opening of the gap is associated with the band inversion in the region of the Dirac points of the Brillouin zone where the two bands corresponding to polaritons of opposite polarizations meet. For one particular type of boundary we observe a highly nonlinear energy dispersion of the edge state which makes polaritonic kagome lattice a promising system for observation of edge state solitons.
We predict the spontaneous modulated emission from a pair of exciton-polariton condensates due to coherent (Josephson) and dissipative coupling. We show that strong polariton-polariton inter- action generates complex dynamics in the weak-lasing domai
n way beyond Hopf bifurcations. As a result, the exciton-polariton condensates exhibit self-induced oscillations and emit an equidistant frequency comb light spectrum. A plethora of possible emission spectra with asymmetric peak dis- tributions appears due to spontaneously broken time-reversal symmetry. The lasing dynamics is affected by the shot noise arising from the influx of polaritons. That results in a complex inhomo- geneous line broadening.
A new mechanism for exciton lasing in ZnSe/ZnCdSe quantum wells is proposed. Lasing, occurring below the lowest exciton line, may be associated with a BCS-like condensed (coherent) exciton state. This state is most stable at low temperatures for dens
ities in the transition region separating the exciton Bose gas and the coherent exciton state. Calculations show the gain region to lie below the exciton line and to be separated from the absorption regime by a transparency region of width, for example, about 80 meV for a 90 Angstrom ZnSe/Zn_(0.75)Cd_(0.25)Se quantum well. Experimental observation of the transparency region using differential spectroscopy would confirm this picture.
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are the first truly two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor, providing an excellent platform to investigate light-matter interaction in the 2D limit. Apart from fundamental scientific exploration, this mat
erial system has attracted active research interest in the nanophotonic devices community for its unique optoelectronic properties. The inherently strong excitonic response in monolayer TMDs can be further enhanced by exploiting the temporal confinement of light in nanophotonic structures. Dielectric metasurfaces are one such two-dimensional nanophotonic structures, which have recently demonstrated strong potential to not only miniaturize existing optical components, but also to create completely new class of designer optics. Going beyond passive optical elements, researchers are now exploring active metasurfaces using emerging materials and the utility of metasurfaces to enhance the light-matter interaction. Here, we demonstrate a 2D exciton-polariton system by strongly coupling atomically thin tungsten diselenide (WSe2) monolayer to a silicon nitride (SiN) metasurface. Via energy-momentum spectroscopy of the WSe2-metasurface system, we observed the characteristic anti-crossing of the polariton dispersion both in the reflection and photoluminescence spectrum. A Rabi splitting of 18 meV was observed which matched well with our numerical simulation. The diffraction effects of the nano-patterned metasurface also resulted in a highly directional polariton emission. Finally, we showed that the Rabi splitting, the polariton dispersion and the far-field emission pattern could be tailored with subwavelength-scale engineering of the optical meta-atoms. Our platform thus opens the door for the future development of novel, exotic exciton-polariton devices by advanced meta-optical engineering.
Random lasing is an intriguing phenomenon occurring in disordered structures with optical gain. In such lasers, the scattering of light provides the necessary feedback for lasing action. Because of the light scattering, the random lasing systems emit
in all the directions in contrast with the directional emission of the conventional lasers. While this property can be desired in some cases, the control of the emission directionality remains required for most of the applications. Besides, it is well known that the excitation of cavity exciton-polaritons is intrinsically directional. Each wavelength (energy) of the cavity polariton, which is a superposition of an excitonic state and a cavity mode, corresponds to a well-defined propagation direction. We demonstrate in this article that coupling the emission of a 2D random laser with a cavity polaritonic resonance permits to control the direction of emission of the random laser. This results in a directional random lasing whose emission angle with respect to the microcavity axis can be tuned in a large range of angles by varying the cavity detuning. The emission angles reached experimentally in this work are 15.8$^circ$ and 22.4$^circ$.
