Abstract

Studies of strong exciton-photon coupling in organic materials have progressed at a rapid pace since the first observation of microcavity polaritons in tetra-(2,6-t-butyl)phenol-porphyrin zinc less than ten years ago. Current research is driven by the potential for new optoelectronic devices based on polaritonic phenomena such as ultrafast optical amplifiers and switches, enhanced nonlinear optical materials, and coherent light emitters, known as polariton lasers. This paper reviews experimental advances related to strong coupling in thermally evaporated organic materials, and their potential application in future optoelectronic devices.
