Fig. 3. Tomography measured between the signal and idler photons.

Fig. 3

The signal is sent directly toward the detector, whereas the idler photon becomes a polariton when entering the sample. (A) Real (Re; left) and imaginary (Im; right) components of the density matrix for the source of photon pairs without the sample. The concurrence is not one because the operation wavelength is not optimal for the source. (B) Real (left) and imaginary (right) components of the density matrix when passing through the microcavity. The concurrence of 0.806 shows that polaritons retain the entanglement.
