Microcavity exciton polaritons based on aligned semiconducting SWCNTs. (a) The two angles that are continuously scanned in the present experiments—the incident angle θ and the polarization angle ϕ. The latter is the angle between the SWCNT alignment direction (x-axis) and the incident light polarization direction. (b) Anisotropic dispersions of microcavity exciton-polaritons in the E11 region for ϕ = 0° and ϕ = 90°. A clear VRS is observed at ϕ = 0°, while a photon dispersion with no splitting is observed at ϕ = 90°. (c) Corresponding simulated anisotropic dispersions in the E11 region. (d) Experimental transmittance spectra at zero detuning (θ ∼39°) for various polarization angles ϕ from 0° to 90° for a device working in the E11 region using an aligned (6,5) SWCNT film with d = 8 nm. (e) Dispersion surfaces of the upper polariton (UP) and lower polariton (LP) (coloured surfaces) for the device in (d). (f) VRS at ϕ = 0° versus the square root of the film thickness, demonstrating the N-fold enhancement of collective light-matter coupling. Adapted from [109].
