The best chance of observing clear Bose-Einstein condensation in the solid-state is with polaritons in semiconductor microcavities. Polaritons are the hybridised exciton-photon modes. GaAs quantum wells are not ideal for this as the excitons are weakly bound such that an electron-hole plasma forms at relatively modest densities. A ZnSe quantum well is more promising as the Coulomb interactions are enhanced. The traditional problem is the difficulty in growing a semiconductor mirror in a ZnSe-based system. We are bypassing this problem by developing a hybrid technology. A thin MgS layer allows us to lift off the active layers and deposit them onto a dielectric mirror. We have already demonstrated strong coupling with this approach. But can we observe polariton scattering and ultimately Bose-Einstein condensation?
