Exciton-polariton in ZnO Strong Coupled Microcavity

AbstractThe exciton binding energy of ZnO up to 60 meV enables its excitons to exist stably at room temperature or even higher.This characteristic allows exciton-polariton devices based on ZnO strong coupled microcavities to overcome the low-temperature experimental limitations of traditional semiconductors making ZnO a favored material for exciton-polariton research in the past decade.This paper introduces several semiconductor microcavity structures of ZnO and focuses on recent reports about phenomena related to ZnO strong coupled microcavities and exciton-polari tons including polariton lasing parametric scattering and quantum states control.The future research direction is also prospected.
