Abstract

Effects beyond cw-Stark shift is investigated in a strongly coupled quantum dot-cavity system using the full quantum master equations, when the dot is dynamically detuned by an off-resonant laser pulse.

We introduce a medium-dependent master equation formalism to study the off-resonant coupling behavior between a single quantum dot and a photonic-crystal cavity. Several surprising effects are found that help explain recent experiments.

Probing different regimes of strong field light–matter interaction with semiconductor quantum dots and few cavity photons

Fabian Hargart, Kaushik Roy‐Choudhury, T John +6 more

In this work we present an extensive experimental and theoretical investigation of different regimes of strong field light–matter interaction for cavity-driven quantum dot (QD) cavity systems. The electric field enhancement inside a high-Q micropillar cavity facilitates exceptionally strong interaction with few cavity photons, enabling the simultaneous investigation for a wide range of QD-laser detuning. In case of a resonant drive, the formation of dressed states and a Mollow triplet sideband splitting of up to 45 μ eV is measured for a mean cavity photon number . In the asymptotic limit of the linear AC Stark effect we systematically investigate the power and detuning dependence of more than 400 QDs. Some QD-cavity systems exhibit an unexpected anomalous Stark shift, which can be explained by an extended dressed 4-level QD model. We provide a detailed analysis of the QD-cavity systems properties enabling this novel effect. The experimental results are successfully reproduced using a polaron master equation approach for the QD-cavity system, which includes the driving laser field, exciton-cavity and exciton-phonon interactions.

Polaron master equation theory of the quantum-dot Mollow triplet in a semiconductor cavity-QED system

C. Roy, Stephen Hughes

We present a comprehensive theoretical study of the resonance fluorescence spectra of an coherently-driven quantum dot (QD) placed inside a high-$Q$ semiconductor cavity and interacting with an acoustic-phonon bath. We derive a quantum master equation (ME) in the polaron frame, which includes exciton-phonon and exciton-cavity coupling to all orders. This work details and extends the theory used in a recent paper [C. Roy and S. Hughes, Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 247403 (2011)] to describe the QD Mollow triplet in the regime of semiconductor cavity QED. Here, we introduce two ME forms, Nakajima-Zwanzig and time convolutionless (TC), both to second order in the system--phonon-reservoir perturbation. In the polaron frame, these two ME forms are shown to yield equivalent population dynamics and fluorescence spectra for a continuous wave (cw) driving field. We also demonstrate that a Markov approximation is valid for computing the incoherent scattering processes, and we subsequently exploit the TC ME to explore the resonance fluorescence spectra of an exciton-driven QD. Both cavity-emitted and exciton-emitted spectra are studied, and these are found to have qualitatively different spectral features. Using a coherent driving field, the well-known characteristics of the atomic Mollow triplet are shown to be considerably modified with electron--acoustic-phonon scattering, and we highlight the key effects arising from both cavity coupling and electron-phonon coupling. Regimes of pronounced cavity feeding and anharmonic cavity QED are exemplified, and we find that the cavity coupling depends sensitively on the exciton-cavity detuning and the temperature of the phonon bath. We show how the full width at half maximum (linewidth) of the Mollow-triplet sidebands varies as a function of the square of the Rabi frequency of the cw pump. Phonon-mediated cavity coupling also contributes to the spectral broadening of the Mollow triplet, depending upon the exciton-cavity detuning and the strength of the exciton-cavity coupling rate. Finally, we calculate the fluorescence spectra for off-resonance cw driving and investigate the resulting Mollow-triplet linewidths.
