Spontaneous generation, enhanced propagation and optical imprinting of quantized vortices and dark solitons in a polariton superfluid: Towards the control of quantum turbulence (a)

In resonantly pumped polariton superfluids we recently explored a new regime based on the bistability of system to enhance propagation fluids up macroscopic distances. This technique together with an all-optical imprinting method allowed generation and control various topological excitations such as quantized vortices dark solitons. The flexibility scalability experimental scheme opens way systematic study quantum turbulence in driven dissipative light. this article review basic working principles enhanced discuss main achieved results well most promising future research directions.
