Polariton mediated resonant Raman scattering in II–VI microcavities: Exciton lifetime effects
Résumé
Semiconductor microcavities enable the study of polariton mediated inelastic light scattering with control of the exciton-photon coupling, and of the exciton and photon strength of the polariton wavefunction. We present a detailed study of the Raman efficiency due to optical phonons resonant with the upper polariton branches in II-VI cavities with embedded CdTe quantum wells. Cavities both in the strong coupling and very strong coupling regimes (Ω
