contents Temporal coherence of driven-dissipative condensates is limited by phase noise. We show that mirror-mediated time-delayed self-feedback enables control of coherence in a trapped exciton-polariton condensate. Reinjecting a small fraction of the emitted light with a tunable delay reveals two regimes set by the ratio of delay time to intrinsic coherence time. Long delays result in pronounced coherence revivals at integer multiples of the feedback delay, while short delays suppress phase diffusion and nearly double the coherence time. A minimal stochastic delayed model reproduces both regimes and supports an interpretation in terms of phase stabilization and delay-induced spectral filtering.
