- Abstract: Two-photon absorption (TPA) allows accessing dark states of matter otherwise
inaccessible to light, which serve as important building blocks for quantum
information processing. In a semiconductor microcavity, TPA driven condensation
of strongly-coupled light-matter exciton-polaritons can enable new solid-state
quantum simulations of dark state-condensate interactions, and was predicted to
stimulate THz emission. Here, we report the first observation of two-photon
pumped polariton condensation, demonstrated by angle-resolved photoluminescence
in a GaAs-based microcavity. TPA is evidenced in the quadratic emission
dependence on pump power below and above the condensation threshold, and
second-harmonic generation is ruled out by both this threshold behaviour and by
the emission peak energy showing no dependence on pump photon energy. Our
results pave the way towards novel polariton-based sources and solid-state
coherent control of collective quantum states with individual two-level
systems.

Spontaneous emission is a fundamental out-of-equilibrium process in which an excited quantum emitter relaxes to the ground state due to quantum fluctuations.
One way to modify these photon-mediated interactions is to alter the dipole radiation patterns of the emitter, e.g., by placing photonic crystals near them.
Our study delves into the interaction between these directional emission patterns and the aforementioned variables, revealing the untapped potential to fine-tune collective quantum optical phenomena.

Two non-identical quantum emitters, when placed within a cavity and coherently excited at the two-photon resonance, can reach stationary states of nearly maximal entanglement.
We show that this mechanism is merely one among a complex family of phenomena that can generate both stationary and metastable entanglement when driving the emitters at the two-photon resonance.

spectroscopy [0.0]
The radiative quantum cascade, i.e. the consecutive emission of photons from a ladder of energy levels, is of fundamental importance in quantum optics.
Here, we use exciton polaritons to explore the cascaded emission of photons in the regime where individual transitions of the ladder are not resolved.
Remarkably, the measured photon-photon correlations exhibit a strong dependence on the polariton energy, and therefore on the underlying polaritonic interaction strength.

We investigated the fluorescence signals from Rhodamine 6G and LDS798 excited with a CW laser or an entangled photon pair source at 1060 nm.
We observed a signal that originates from hot-band absorption (HBA), which is one-photon absorption from thermally-populated vibrational levels of the ground electronic state.
For the typical conditions under which E2PEF measurements are performed, contributions from the HBA process could lead to a several orders-of-magnitude overestimate of the quantum advantage for excitation efficiency.
