摘要
A classical treatment of parametric scattering in strong-coupling semiconductor microcavities is shown to provide a good description of recent experiments in which parametric oscillator behavior has been demonstrated. The model consists of a nonlinear excitonic oscillator coupled to a cavity mode that is driven by the external fields and predicts the output power, below threshold gain and spectral blueshifts of the parametric oscillator.
