  In resonantly pumped polariton superfluids we recently explored a new regime
based on the bistability of the polariton system to enhance the propagation of
polariton fluids up to macroscopic distances. This technique together with an
all-optical imprinting method allowed the generation and control of various
topological excitations such as quantized vortices and dark solitons. The
flexibility and scalability of the new experimental scheme opens the way to the
systematic study of quantum turbulence in driven dissipative quantum fluids of
light. In this article we review the basic working principles of the
bistability enhanced propagation and of the imprinting technique and we discuss
the main achieved results as well as the most promising future research
directions.
