Bose-einstein condensation of two-dimensional polaritons in microcavity under the influence of the landau quantization and rashba spin-orbit coupling
Abstract
The Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of the two-dimensional (2D) magnetoexcitonpolaritons in microcavity, where the Landau quantization of the electron and hole states accompanied by the Rashba spinorbit coupling plays the main role, was investigated. The Landau quantization levels of the 2D heavy holes with nonparabolic dispersion law and third-order chirality terms both induced by the external electric field perpendicular to the semiconductor quantum well and strong magnetic field B give rise to a nonmonotonous dependence of the magnetoexciton energy levels and the polariton energy branches on B.
