Exciton-polaritons can be trapped in 0D quantum boxes by either trapping the excitonic or photonic part of these hybrid quasiparticles. Engineering the trapping potential then allows to tailor site-to-site evanescent coupling of the localised polariton mode wavefunctions in a periodic lattice. This leads to the formation of a tailorable polariton bandstructure which can be utilized to simulate complex many-body phenomena in the concept of quantum-simulators.

Here we report on recent measurements below and above bosonic condensation threshold on polariton lattices of different arrangement and dimensionality. The potential landscape in this structures is given by a versatile trapping technique that is based on local elongation of the λ/2-AlAs cavity layer in a high quality microcavity structure with embedded GaAs quantum wells.
