• Starting with the quantum well exciton energy higher than the cavity photon mode, stress was used to reduce the exciton energy and bring it into resonance with the photon mode.
• At the point of zero detuning, line narrowing and strong increase of the photoluminescence are seen.
• An in-plane harmonic potential was created for the polaritons, which allows trapping, potentially making possible Bose-Einstein condensation of polaritons analogous to trapped atoms.
• Drift of the polaritons into this trap was demonstrated.
