Radiation emission from an asymmetric quantum dot coupled to a plasmonic nanostructure

Abstract We propose a scheme for controlling the absorption and RFS of a quantum dot (QD) with broken inversion symmetry interacting with a plasmonic nanostructure. The QD is described as a two-level atom-like system with a permanent dipole moment in the excited state. A linearly polarized laser field drives the optical transition of the QD and produces localized surface plasmons in the MNP. The influence of plasmonic effects between the nanoparticle and the dot is analyzed using the Green tensor method. We found terahertz (THz) emission in the resonance fluorescence spectrum when the laser frequency lies above the transition frequency. The position and strength of the THz peaks is controlled by means of the dot-nanoparticle separation. The quantum nature of the emitted THz photons is analyzed by evaluating the second-order fluorescence intensity correlation function. We found a periodic alternation of photon bunching and anti-bunching with a period that depends on the polarization of the driving field.

Insights into Fano-type resonance fluorescence from quantum-dot–metal-nanoparticle molecules with a squeezed vacuum

Shu-Ting Shen, Zhiming Wu, Jiahua Li +1 more

Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) possess the intriguing property of enhancing and limiting the energy of light field to subwavelength scale, which have attracted extensive attention in physics, chemistry, and life sciences. Meanwhile, squeezing is a general concept in quantum optics and can be used to engineer matter interaction scenarios. Here we consider an artificial hybrid molecule consisting of an MNP interacting with a semiconductor quantum dot (QD), combining with a squeezed reservoir. Using experimentally realistic parameters for the MNP-QD architecture and fully quantized approach, we theoretically explore the optical properties of the hybrid molecule driven by an external applied laser field via probing the resonance fluorescence in the steady state. We show that in this way it is possible to engineer and control the peak-value magnitudes, widths, and shapes of the resonance fluorescence spectra under the influence of the squeezed vacuum field without the need for the strong-coupling condition between the MNP and QD. In particular, some interesting phenomena in rich spectral responses are attainable, including Fano-type resonance fluorescence, fluorescence quenching, fluorescence narrowing, and fluorescence enhancement. Our method can also be extended to other nanoscopic structures, such as a plasmonic nanoantenna coupled to an emitter. These unique line shapes obtained here may have potential applications in developing quantum plasmonic platforms and sensitive on-chip devices such as optical switches and sensors.
