Bose-Einstein condensates of exciton polaritons

The result of a theoretical calculation of the distribution of 'liquid light' in the phase space of an ultrathin two-dimensional crystal. Bright spots are Bose-Einstein condensates of exciton polaritons. They were experimentally detected exactly at the place predicted by the researchers.
