Description Our research has underpinned some of the recent advances in the first observations of organic polariton condensation and polariton-mediated energy transfer achieved between different organic materials.
Exploitation Route We believe that our research will make polaritonics the basis for future optoelectronic technologies, including thresholdless lasers, THz emitters (with applications in non-invasive medical imaging and explosives detection), and a range of new quantum information technologies. Indeed, by modifying the basic electronic functionality of materials, hybrid polaritonics could have even wider impact in the areas from chemical sensing to catalysis and photo-biology.
