13. In Ref. 6, polarization-dependent degenerated four-wave-mixing signals have been measured, and analyzed by the model of parametric scattering of cavity polaritons. We have extended our model to the corresponding one, and have shown that our self-consistent method also covers the above-experimental condition in Ref. 15.
