1203.3728 (Michiel Wouters)

Wave function Monte Carlo method for polariton condensates    [PDF]

Michiel Wouters
We present a quantum jump approach to describe coupled quantum and classical systems in the context of Bose-Einstein condensation in the solid state. In our formalism, the excitonic gain medium is described by classical rate equations, while the polariton modes are described fully quantum mechanically. We show the equivalence of our method with a master equation approach. As an application, we compute the linewidth of a single mode polariton condensate. Both the line broadening due to the interactions between polaritons and the interactions with the reservoir excitons is taken into account.
