Ultra‐Narrow Linewidth Polariton Lasing in Optically Trapped Bose‐Einstein Condensates at Room Temperature

Abstract Polariton lasing via Bose‐Einstein condensation (BEC) provides a peculiar method to achieve low threshold coherent light sources. Until now, the cryogenic operating temperature required for polariton lasers has hampered the development of polaritonics. Here, a novel approach is first reported to realize the ultra‐narrow linewidth polariton lasing under quasi‐3D quantum confinement at room‐temperature (RT). The potential trap landscape is constructed by ring‐shaped optical excitation, wherein the continuum polariton dispersion is modulated into discrete simple harmonic oscillator (SHO) states. The coherent condensation lasing of trapped polaritons occurs beyond the threshold power. Benefiting from the horizontal quantum confinement, the trapped polariton lasing exhibits an ultra‐narrow linewidth (0.7 meV) and excellent quality factor (Q = 3510). Moreover, the second‐order quantum coherence properties of trapped polariton condensation are determined to reveal the quantum phase transition of Bosonic system. The results offer a feasible route for realizing a low‐threshold ultra‐narrow linewidth polariton laser at RT, which significantly facilitates the fabrication of polariton laser and switches on opportunities for future applications.
