    • To detect the effects of squeezing, one usually refers to two-quadrature observables by measuring their fluctuations. These oscillate rapidly in time between a very low and a very high value, and for the purpose of detection a procedure of conversion of an oscillating quantity to a constant quantity has to be employed. In ``optical squeezing'' such a procedure is experimentally possible and has been realized in vacuum.13,14 For a polariton two-quadrature operators may also be defined1 but the measurability of their fluctuations inside the medium where the polariton is excited may be rather difficult. However, in some cases may be relatively simpler to measure the non-Poissonian statistics connected with squeezing.

    • Although in different contexts, results that relate the squeezing to the dielectric properties of a medium have independently been obtained by R. Glauber and M. Lewenstein, Ref. 18, and by I. Abram, Ref. 17. However, unlike these works, in this paper we analyze nonclassical properties in a resonant material—essential to create a polariton.

    • It is important to stress that the electromagnetic field leaking off the surface, unlike the free transmitted field propagating in vacuum, is described by the radiative component of a polariton mixed wave excited inside the crystal. See, e.g., A. D. Boardman, Electromagnetic Surface Modes (Wiley, New York, 1982). The appropriate conceptual framework that permits one to understand this distinction is the extinction theorem [, ] extended to the quantum optics regime: Accordingly, the evanescent field is in our case the portion (dipole field) of the inside field that does not extinguish the vacuum incident field. This is discussed in detail in Ref. 15.

    • The two distinct coefficients A1k, A2k manifestly designate the resonant and nonresonant parts of the interaction that couples photons and excitons in a polariton. The coefficient Bk relates to the contribution of the nonresonant part of the ``photon-photon'' coupling (a hatka hatkdag) to the single-photon dressed energy, whereas Bksprime, distinct from Bk, relates to the resonant part ( a hatka hat-k) of the same interaction. These terms and H.c. physically originate from the interaction between the electromagnetic field and polarizable electrons.12 Similarly, for Ck and Cksprime: They are associated to the nonresonant (b hatkb hatkdag) and resonant ( b hatkb hat-k) parts of the ``exciton-exciton'' coupling. These terms and H.c. arise from the exciton dispersion relation. For Frankel excitons, the transfer of excitation from site to site gives rise to such a term. For Wannier excitons, they are related to the effective mass of the exciton, although we do not account [Truncated]

    • A photon in the crystal can transform directly into an exciton, provided that they both have the same energy and wave vector. If the exciton is not scattered by a phonon or some other defects, energy ``oscillates'' back and forth between exciton and photon owing to energy–wave-vector conservation as discussed, e.g., in Ref. 10. The propagating field of the polariton describes this ``intrinsic phase'' of the polariton, and the oscillations above can be ascribed to the oscillations of the mixed boson c hat. The latter are estimated directly from OMEGA [cf. Eq. (C1)] and for an exciton polariton in CdS at k = k0, hbar-1Ω app 1015 sec-1. This rate of energy exchange has been evaluated in other contexts and is of the same order of magnitude [cf., and Dynamical Processes in Solid State Optics, edited by R. Kubo (Benjamin, New York, 1967), Part I].

    • Actually, we use trial functions so as to express the three free c functions in terms of one of them, say, e.g., Bk (Ck) and Cksprime (Ck), and we then construct Ck by inverting Eq. (3.13)—now a function of Ck only—taking curlepk as the experimental energy. This fitting procedure by which we give the parametrization of H hatpol in (3.1) is not unique.
