Abstract

We theoretically investigate the phenomenon of voltage-controlled intracavity electromagnetically induced transparency with asymmetric double quantum dot system. The impact of voltage on frequency pulling and cavity linewidth narrowing are discussed. The linewidth and position of the cavity transmission can be engineered by the bias voltage. The scheme may be useful in integrated electro-optical device in quantum information process.

Voltage-controlled slow light in asymmetry double quantum dots

Chun-Hua Yuan, Ka‐Di Zhu

The authors demonstrate theoretically that there exists electromagnetically induced transparency in an asymmetric double quantum dot system using tunneling instead of pump laser. The group velocity slowdown factor is theoretically analyzed as a function of electron tunneling at different broadened linewidths. With feasible parameters for applications to a 100Gbits∕s optical network, numerical calculation infers group velocity as low as 300m∕s. The scheme is expected to be useful in constructing a variable semiconductor optical buffer based on electromagnetically induced transparency in an asymmetric double quantum dot controlled by voltage.

Intracavity electromagnetically induced transparency

Mikhail D. Lukin, Michael Fleischhauer, Marlan O. Scully +1 more

The effect of intracavity electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) on the properties of optical resonators and active laser devices is discussed theoretically. Pronounced frequency pulling and cavity-linewidth narrowing are predicted. The EIT effect can be used to reduce classical and quantum-phase noise of the beat note of an optical oscillator substantially. Fundamental limits of this stabilization mechanism as well as its potential application to high-resolution spectroscopy are discussed.

Voltage-Controlled Slow Light via Resonant Tunneling Induced Transparency in Vertically aligned Conical Double Quantum Dot Molecules

Nooralhuda S.Yaqoob, Sabah M. M. Ameen

The electronic states of InAs/GaAs quantum dot has investigated for vertically-aligned double conical quantum dots molecule (CQDM). We calculated Eigen energies as a function of external voltage, wetting layer thickness and inter-dot spacer. Tunneling-induced transparency (TIT) in vertically coupled InAs/GaAs quantum dots using tunneling instead of pump laser, analogous to electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in atomic systems, has studied. The inter-dot quantum coupling strength is tuned by static electric fields. For parameters appropriate to a 100 Gbits/s optical network, slow down factor (SDF) as 109 can be achieved. The scheme is expected to be useful to construct a variable semiconductor optical buffer based on TIT in vertically coupled InAs/GaAs quantum dots controlled by electric fields.

Controllable Tunneling of Light through a Quantum-Dot-Molecule Dielectric Film via Electromagnetically Induced Transparency

Ruixi Zeng, Jing Hua Gu, Jianqi Shen

Since discrete multilevel transitions of quantum-dot molecules driven by external electromagnetic fields can exhibit quantum coherence effects, such an optical characteristic can be utilized to control propagation of electromagnetic wave through a quantum-dot molecule dielectric film. Since inner-dot tunneling in quantum-dot molecules can be controlled by a gate voltage, destructive quantum coherence among multilevel transitions in quantum-dot molecule would give rise to EIT (electromagnetically induced transparency). In this report, we shall investigate controllable on- and off-resonance tunneling effects of an incident electromagnetic wave through such a quan-tum-dot-molecule dielectric film, of which the optical response is tuned by the switchable gate voltage. We have found from the theoretical mechanism that a high gate voltage can cause the EIT phenomenon of quan-tum-dot-molecule systems, and under the condition of on-resonance light tunneling through the thin film, the probe field will propagation without loss if the probe frequency detuning is zero. By taking advantage of these effects sensitive to the tunable gate voltage, such quantum coherence would be inte-grated in certain photonic structures, and some devices such as photonic switching and transistors can be designed. Transient evolution of optical characteristics in the quantum-dot-molecule dielectric film (once the tunable gate voltage is turned on or off) is also considered in this report.

Tunneling control of cavity linewidth narrowing via quantum interference in triangular quantum dot molecules

Si-Cong Tian, Ren-Gang Wan, Enbo Xing +2 more

A scheme for tunneling control of cavity linewidth narrowing by quantum interference in triangular-type triple quantum dots (TQDs) is proposed. In such system, quantum interference induced by tunneling between the TQDs can result in the appearance of two transparency windows and a steep dispersion. Furthermore, when the sample is embedded in a ring cavity, an ultranarrow transmission peak is obtained within the narrowed transparency windows. And by varying the tunneling, the linewidth and the position of the ultranarrow transmission peak can be engineered. Because no coupling laser is required, the scheme proposed here is more convenient for future experiments and applications in optics, and may be useful in designing novel optoelectronic devices.

Influence of the asymmetric excited state decay on coherent population trapping: atom $\times$ quantum dot

Halyne Silva Borges, Murilo Henrique de Oliveira, Celso J. Villas-Bôas

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is an optical phenomenon which allows a drastic modification of the optical properties of an atomic system by applying a control field. It has been largely studied in the last decades and nowadays we can find a huge number of experimental and theoretical related studies. Recently a similar phenomenon was also shown in quantum dot molecules (QDM) , where the control field is replaced by the tunneling rate between quantum dots. Our results show that in the EIT regime, the optical properties of QDM and the atomic system are identical. However, here we show that in the strong probe field regime, i.e., "coherent population trapping" (CPT) regime, it appears a strong discrepancy on the optical properties of both systems. We show that the origin of such difference relies on the different decay rates of the excited state of the two systems, implying in a strong difference on their higher order nonlinear susceptibilities. Finally, we investigate the optical response of atom/QDM strongly coupled to a cavity mode. In particular, the QDM-cavity system has the advantage of allowing a better narrowing of the width of the dark state resonance in the CPT regime when compared with atom-cavity system.
