Feshbach resonance of heavy exciton-polaritons

Abstract

We study interactions between polaritons formed by hybridization of excitons in a two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor with surface optical phonons or plasmons. These quasiparticles have a high effective mass and can bind into bipolaritons near a Feshbach-like scattering resonance. We analyze the phase diagram of a many-body condensate of heavy polaritons and bipolaritons and calculate their absorption and luminescence spectra, which can be measured experimentally.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figure
