[Réseaux de tourbillons quantifiés dans les superfluides de polaritons]
Dans cet article de synthèse, nous nous concentrerons sur la description d'études récentes menées dans le but d'observer des réseaux de tourbillons quantifiés dans des superfluides de polaritons injectés de manière résonante. En particulier, nous montrerons comment l'implémentation de pièges optiques pour les polaritons permet la réalisation de réseaux tourbillon–anti-tourbillon dans des géométries confinées et comment le développement d'une méthode flexible pour injecter un moment angulaire orbital contrôlé (OAM) dans de tels systèmes permet l'observation de motifs de tourbillons de mêmes signes.
In this review, we will focus on the description of the recent studies conducted in the quest for the observation of lattices of quantized vortices in resonantly injected polariton superfluids. In particular, we will show how the implementation of optical traps for polaritons allows for the realization of vortex–antivortex lattices in confined geometries and how the development of a flexible method to inject a controlled orbital angular momentum (OAM) in such systems results in the observation of patterns of same-sign vortices.
