Effect of weak magnetic field on polariton-electron scattering in   semiconductor microcavities
  We theoretically calculate the polariton linewidth associated with the polariton-electron scattering in a microcavity in presence of a magnetic field perpendicular to the microcavity plane. It is shown that the polariton linewidth oscillates as a function of the magnetic field magnitude and the polariton-electron scattering rate can be not only decreased but also increased by the magnetic field. The possible applications of such an effect are discussed.
