Synopsis
Polaritons continues to represent a fascinating frontier in condensed matter physics and optical sciences, bridging the gap between light and matter at the quantum level. These hybrid quasiparticles arise from the strong coupling between excitons and photons, leading to unique properties that are anticipated to be harnessed for a wide range of applications, including quantum computing, information processing, and sensing technologies. The study of quantum polaritons opens new avenues for exploring fundamental phenomena such as Bose-Einstein condensation, superfluidity, and topological effects in photonic systems. The TOM Quantum Polaritonics will showcase the latest advancements in this rapidly evolving field, encompassing both theoretical insights and experimental breakthroughs. Topics will include polariton condensation, nonlinear dynamics of polaritons, polaritonic devices, integration with nanophotonic structures, and potential applications in quantum networks and simulations.
