Temperature Dependence of Vacuum Rabi Splitting in a Single Quantum Dot-Semiconductor Microcavity

Zhu Ka-Di, Wai-Sang Li

The quantum dynamics of an exciton dressed by acoustic phonons in an optically driven quantum dot-semiconductor microcavity at finite temperatures is investigated theoretically by quantum optics methods. It is shown that the temperature dependence of the vacuum Rabi splitting is 22g×exp［-∑qλq(Nq+1/2)］,where Nq=1/［exp(ωq/kBT)-1］ is the phonon population, g is the single-photon Rabi frequency, and λq corresponds to exciton-phonon coupling.

Controllable bistable optical switch and normal mode splitting in hybrid optomechanical semiconductor microcavity containing single quantum dot driven by amplitude modulated field

Vijay Bhatt, Sabur A. Barbhuiya, Pradip K. Jha +1 more

Abstract We theoretically explore optical bistability for the possible signature of all-optical switching and their performance in a hybrid quantum optomechanical system comprising of two semiconductor microcavities coupled optically. One of the cavity is driven by an external amplitude-modulated pump laser while the second cavity, which contains a quantum dot (QD), is indirectly driven by light transmitted from the first cavity and a transverse optical field. The generated bistable behavior due to optomechanical nonlinearity shows a typical optical switching behavior and it can be controlled by changing the laser power, QD cavity coupling, modulating amplitude/frequency and the optomechanical coupling. A clear signature of energy exchange between the mechanical and optical modes is visible from the mechanical displacement spectrum. These results suggest that the present system can be used in sensitive optical switches and optical sensors.

Emission Properties And Photon Statistics Of A Single Quantum-Dot Laser

Christopher Gies, P. Gärtner, S. Ritter +3 more

We study the light‐matter interaction of a single semiconductor quantum dot in a microcavity. Excitation‐dependent effects, like dephasing and Coulomb screening lead to a transition from excitonic emission to contributions from multi‐exciton states as the pump is increased. During this transition, the system passes from strong to weak coupling, the photon‐emission changes from sub‐poissonian to coherent emission via bunching, and the output intensity follows an s‐shaped curve typically seen in many‐emitter systems. These effects have also been observed experimentally and explained in terms of an atomic model that also accounts for a background contribution of other emitter. Here we give an alternative interpretation based on the semiconductor nature of the single quantum‐dot emitter.
