Line 38:

* a system of indirect [[exciton]]s (composed of bound pairs of [[electrons]] and [[electron hole|holes]] in double [[quantum well]]s with a static [[dipole moment]]). Indirect excitons, which are created by light and decay to emit light, strongly interact due to their dipole alignment.<ref>{{cite doi|10.1063/1.4866855}}</ref><ref>{{cite doi|10.1364/OL.35.001587}}</ref>

* a system of microcavity polaritons ([[exciton-polaritons]] inside an [[optical microcavity]]) where, similar to exciton-based optical transistors, [[polariton]]s facilitate effective interactions between photons<ref>{{cite doi|10.1038/ncomms2734bncomms2734}}</ref>

* [[photonic crystal]] cavities with an active Raman gain medium<ref>{{cite doi|10.1103/PhysRevA.88.033847}}</ref>
