Trapping potentials for Rydberg excitons in cuprous oxide (Cu2O) — •Sjard Ole Krüger and Stefan Scheel — Institut für Physik, Universität Ro- stock, D-18059 Rostock, Germany
The trapping of neutral atoms by optical dipole potentials is an established experimental technique. For semiconductor excitons, similar traps can be created by a spatially inhomogeneous strain field and have been applied in the pursuit of BEC of the excitonic ground state in Cu2O. These strain traps offer a great variety achievable geometries, depending on the stressor, its orientation relative to the crystal axes, the stress and the excitonic state in question. In this talk, calculations of a strain-induced waveguide potential [1] for the Rydberg excitons of the yellow series in Cu2O [2] will be presented and conditions for the formation of such traps will be evaluated. Additionally, the possibility of using optical dipole potentials to trap excitons will be discussed.
