摘要
We study the equilibrium properties of a system of dipole-active excitons coupled to a single photon mode at fixed total excitation. Treating the presence or absence of a trapped exciton as a two-level system produces a model, the Dicke model, that is exactly soluble. It gives a simple description of polariton condensation in optical cavities, beyond the low-density bosonic regime. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
