Polaritons are hybrid states of light and matter that occur in a wide range of physical platforms. When a nanosphere is levitated inside an optical cavity, light can hybridize with the motion on a plane rather than along an axis, resulting in ‘vectorial’ polaritons.

飞机上的极化子

极化子是光和物质的混合状态，出现在各种物理平台中。当纳米球悬浮在光学腔内时，光可以与平面上的运动混合，而不是沿轴运动，从而产生“矢量”极化子。
