In this paper, we report the exciton polaritons in both positive and negative detuning micro cavities based on InGaN multi-quantum wells (MQWs) and the first polariton lasing in InGaN/GaN MQWs at room temperature by utilizing a 4.5λ Fabry-Perot (F-P) cavity with double dielectric distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs). Double thresholds corresponding respectively to polariton lasing and photonic lasing are observed along with half-width narrowing and peak blue-shifts. The threshold of polariton lasing is about half of the threshold of photonic lasing. Our results paved a substantial way for ultra-low threshold lasers and room temperature Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) in nitride semiconductors.
