We photo-excite slab polymer waveguides doped with J-aggregating dye molecules and measure the leaky emission from strongly coupled waveguide exciton polariton modes at room temperature. We show that the momentum of the waveguide exciton polaritons can be controlled by modifying the thickness of the excitonic waveguide. Non-resonantly pumped excitons in the slab excitonic waveguide decay into transverse electric and transverse magnetic strongly coupled exciton waveguide modes with radial symmetry. These leak to cones of light with radial and azimuthal polarizations.The emission of light by recombination of electronhole pairs (excitons) in excitonic materials, e.g. semiconductors, quantum wells, dye molecules, is used for a wide range of applications, including lasers, light emitting diodes [1], and fluorescent tags in biology [2]. The majority of the applications based on photoemission from excitons operate in the weak coupling regime, where the exciton is annihilated and as a consequence a photon is emitted either by spontaneous emission or by stimulated emission. The exciton and emitted photon can therefore be treated as two separate physical entities. On the other hand, in the strong coupling regime, the exciton and photon mode can exchange energy at a rate faster than the decay rate of the exciton and the escape rate of the photon, and the two particles create a hybrid state known as exciton-polariton (EP) [3,4]. The EP can be considered as a quasi particle with mixed properties of light and matter. The masses of cavity EPs are 10 −4 −10 −5 times those of typical semiconductor excitons [5]. In comparison to bare photons which cannot scatter each other, EPs can scatter each other thanks to their excitonic part, leading to strong population-dependent nonlinearities [6,7] and interesting physical phenomena, e.g. Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) which results in macroscopic coherence of the condensate and superfluidity [8][9][10]. Furthermore, these hybrid light matter states have been shown to allow new device applications such as the generation of low threshold coherent emission at room temperature without the need for population inversion [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] and low threshold all-optical switches based on exciton-polariton scattering [13].To date, most EP studies and devices have been demonstrated using optical cavities [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. In optical cavities, strong confinement of the optical modes makes reaching the strong coupling regime possible, and the dispersion relation of the cavity EP exhibits a potential well, allowing BEC of the EPs into the lowest energy state. However, this configuration is somewhat limited since the EP modes of the system are localized and cannot propagate, and cannot be probed directly. In addition these devices, being based on cavities, are usually rigid and are sensitive to deformations [10]. This motivates the investigation of configurations other than cavities that allow strong coupling of electromagnetic modes with excitons.Recently it was show...
