Abstract:
Elementary quasiparticles in a two-dimensional electron system can be described as exciton polarons since electron-exciton interactions ensures dressing of excitons by Fermi-sea electron-hole pair excitations. A relevant open question is the modification of this description when the electrons occupy flat bands and electron-electron interactions become prominent. Here, we perform cavity spectroscopy of a two-dimensional electron system in the strong coupling regime, where polariton resonances carry signatures of strongly correlated quantum Hall phases. By measuring the evolution of the polariton splitting under an external magnetic field, we demonstrate the modification of polaron dressing that we associate with filling factor dependent electron-exciton interactions.
