Title
Quantum Fluid of Light in Microstructured Semiconductor Microcavities
Abstract
Semiconductor microcavities provide a unique platform to explore the physics of non-linear quantum fluids of light. In this talk I will present our experiments on the propagation and manipulation of quantum fluids in photonic circuits. I will show how, using periodic or a-periodic lattices, we can simulate complex Hamiltonians. Perspectives in terms of quantum simulations will be discussed.
