Abstract
Semiconductor microcavities are of inherent physical importance for their ability to dramatically alter the emission properties of solid states. Of particular interest is the strong coupling regime, characterized by a cavity-exciton coupling which dominates over irreversible decay mechanisms. This regime has been the focus of abundant activity since the first observation of the normal mode splitting in a semiconductor microcavity.1 Recent work has elucidated cavity polariton emission properties in both the linear2 and nonlinear3,4,5 regimes.
