Abstract

We developed a high-resolution Michelson interferometer in order to stabilize the relative phase of double pulses by using a He-Ne two-frequency laser positioning system. Very stable phase-locked pulse pair whose phase difference was only 4 degree at 900nm was realized.Using a high-resolution Michelson interferometer, we demonstrated coherent control of an exciton in a GaAs/AlGaAs crescent-shaped quantum wire. The dephasing time of the single quantum wire was 400fs.

Development of high resolution Michelson interferometer for stable phase-locked ultrashort pulse pair generation

Takumi Okada, Kazuhiro Komori, Keishiro Goshima +5 more

We developed a high resolution Michelson interferometer with a two-frequency He-Ne laser positioning system in order to stabilize the relative phase of a pulse pair. The control resolution corresponded to a 12 as time resolution or a phase of 1.5 degrees at 900 nm. This high resolution Michelson interferometer can generate a phase-locked pulse pair either with a specific relative phase such as 0 or pi radians or with an arbitrary phase. Coherent control of an InAs self-assembled quantum dot was demonstrated using the high resolution Michelson interferometer with a microspectroscopy system.

Coherent Control of Exciton in a Single Quantum Dot Using High-Resolution Michelson Interferometer

Takumi Okada, Kazuhiro Komori, Keishiro Goshima +6 more

We developed a high-resolution Michelson interferometer with a He–Ne two-frequency laser positioning system, and measured the coherent carrier dynamics of a single InAs self-assembled quantum dot (SAQD) using a micro-spectroscopy system. The phase-locked double pulses were stabilized, with the maximum deviation being below 10 nm during the long measurement time of 1 h. Using this system, coherent control of an exciton in an InAs SAQD with very fine phase stabilization was demonstrated. The dephasing time of the single quantum dots was 9.5 ps which is close to that estimated from the homogeneous linewidth in the photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectrum.

Fine phase control of coherent excitons using pulse shaping technique

Kazuhiro Komori, M. Watanabe, Takeyoshi Sugaya +2 more

Summary form only given. Ultrafast coherent control of excitons in semiconductors have been reported using Michelson interferometer with precise control of the pulse interval in time domain. In order to improve the phase controllability and realize arbitrary manipulation, the pulse shaping technique is a more attractive candidate. In this paper, we report very fine phase control of coherent, excitons in GaAs/AlGaAs single quantum wells using phase-locked pulses prepared by pulse shaping technique.

Ultrafast Coherent Control of Excitons and Exciton-Polaritons in Quantum Nanostructure

Kazuhiro Komori, Gary R. Hayes, Takumi Okada +4 more

We have demonstrated ultrafast coherent control of excitons and exciton-polaritons in semiconductor quantum nanostructures. An InGaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum-well Bragg structure and an AlGaAs/GaAs crescent-shaped quantum wire structure were used as samples for the control of the exciton-polariton and excitons in the nanostructure. In the multi-quantum-well Bragg sample, a two-stage decay due to the super-radiant exciton-polariton mode is clearly observed under the resonance conditions. Highly sensitive coherent control measurement enables us to observe the dephasing characteristics in the crescent-shaped quantum wire sample, and a very fast dephasing time T 2 of between 200 fs and 300 fs with power dependence was observed.
