Exciton polariton interactions in Van der Waals superlattices at room temperature

The authors embed a multiple quantum-well WS2 heterostructure in a planar microcavity and show the systematic control of the normal mode coupling-strength. They find a strong enhancement of the characteristic time scale, which they attribute to long-lived dark excitations emerging in the structure.
