AbstractBragg scattering of polaritons by a coherent acoustic wave is mediated and strongly enhanced by the relevant exciton states resonant with the acoustic and optic fields simultaneously. In this case, in sharp contrast with conventional acousto-optics, the resonantly enhanced Bragg spectra reveal the multiple orders of diffracted light, i.e., a Brillouin band structure of parametrically driven polaritons can be directly visualized. We analyze the above scheme for polaritons in (GaAs) semiconductor microcavities driven by a surface acoustic wave (SAW) and show that for realistic values of the SAW, $ u_{ m SAW} = 1$ GHz and $I_{ m ac} lesssim 100$ W/cm$^2$, the main acoustically-induced band gap in the polariton spectrum can be as large as $Delta^{ m MC}_{ m ac} simeq 0.6$ meV, and the Bragg replicas up to $n=3$ can be observed.
