Abstract

The possible existence of quantum crystals phase of polariton condensate in two-dimensional microcavity polariton was studied by using mean-field method for bosons at zero temperature. In this study, we observe the supersolid crystallized (hexagonal, square) and a quantized winding number of the phase in a regime of strong- field interaction in rotating exciton–polariton condensates. First, the ground state of the condensate was found; and the solution was further extended for dynamics state to reach the equilibrium steady-state as well as their density profile and energy diagrams. The supersolid crystal is the result of the considerable deviation induced by the interaction of polaritons of both ground and dynamic states of a dressed dipolar Bose–Einstein condensate. Here, the researchers demonstrated the formation of a hexagonal lattice in the nonlinear regime at high polariton-density where polariton–polariton interactions dominate the behavior of the system. It was identified that stability regimes for ground state increases as the polariton–polariton interaction strength increases. The phase diagram for the stable vortex state will be useful for conducting experimental and theoretical studies on rotating dipolar quantum gases and many other exotic systems.
