Incoherent control of Goos–Hänchen shifts in a tunneling quantum dot molecule

Abstract

Abstract In this letter, we propose a novel model for adjusting the Goos–Hänchen shifts (GH) from a fixed cavity. A three-level double quantum dot (QD) molecule is doped in the cavity, which interacts with a probe laser field and an incoherent pumping rate. We initially investigate the refraction index of double QDs utilizing the quantum mechanical density matrix approach in order to achieve negative and positive refractive indexes. The GH shifts of reflected and transmitted light beams in positive and negative refraction indices of the intracavity medium were then studied. The improved negative or positive GH shifts in reflected and transmitted light beams may be accomplished by changing the incoherent pumping rate and tunneling effect. Our findings reveal that the magnitude of the GH shifts is greatly influenced by the absorption of incoming probing light in double QDs. The enormous GH shifts for the perfect tuning cavity have been seen at a given incidence angle.

Controlling Goos–Hänchen shift in a negative-refractive-index quantum-dot nanostructure

M. Jamshidnejad, Masoud Jabbari, Elnaz Ahmadi Sangachin +1 more

Abstract The Goos–Hänchen (GH) shifts due to a negative refractive index in double quantum-dot nanostructures are discussed in reflected and transmitted light beams. It is realized that positive and negative GH shifts can be attained in the negative-refraction medium due to the presence of the indirect incoherent pumping field and electron tunneling. We found that the lateral shift at the fixed incident angle can be enhanced (positive or negative) under suitable conditions on the control field, without changing the structure of the cavity. We hope that our proposed configuration may be helpful for future all-optical sensor devices based on quantum-dot nanostructures.

Phase control of optical Goos–Hänchen shifts in a quantum dot nanostructure via high refractive index

Ali Raheli, Sarkew Salah Abdulkareem, Basim Al-Qargholi

Abstract We proposed a model for adjusting Goos–Hänchen (GH) shifts in a cavity with quantum dot (QD) nanostructure in this letter. The actual component of the susceptibility was studied by analytical solution of the coherence term of the density matrix elements, and the refractive index of the QD nanostructure was explored. We discovered that the intracavity medium became phase sensitive because of the electron tunneling action. As a result, the relative phase of applied lights may be used to manipulate the medium’s refraction index. The GH shifts in reflected and transmitted light beams in high refractive index QD nanostructures with diminishing probe absorption were next examined. We discovered that the GH shifts of reflected and transmitted lights are greatly influenced by the applied lights’ relative phase. We established that greater negative or positive GH shifts in reflected and transmitted photons are conceivable in the presence of electron tunneling.

Controlling the Goos–Hänchen Shift via Incoherent Pumping Field and Electron Tunneling in the Triple Coupled InGaAs/GaAs Quantum Dots

Rajab Nasehi, Seyyed Hossein Asadpour, HAMID RAHIMPOUR SOLEIMANI +1 more

We study the controlling of the Goos-Hänchen (GH) shifts in reflected and transmitted light beams in the triple coupled InGaAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) nanostructures with electron tunneling and incoherent pumping field. It is shown that the lateral shift can become either large negative or large positive, which can be controlled by the electron tunneling and the rate of incoherent pump field in different incident angles. It is also demonstrated that the properties of the GH shifts are strongly dependent on the probe absorption beam of the intracavity medium due to the switching from superluminal light propagation to subluminal behavior or vice versa. Our suggested system can be considered as a new theoretical method for developing a new nano-optoelectronic sensor.

Incoherent control of Goos–Hänchen shifts in a four-level InGaN/GaN quantum dot nanostructure

Ghahraman Solookinejad, M. Panahi, Elnaz Ahmadi Sangachin +1 more

Abstract In this paper, we propose a new configuration for manipulating Goos–Hänchen (GH) shifts in reflected and transmitted probe beams in a fixed geometrical scheme with a confined four-level InGaN/GaN quantum dot nanostructure. Here, the four-level quantum dot nanostructure is driven by a weak probe light, a coherent coupling field, and two broadband polarized fields that serve as the incoherent pumping fields. We theoretically show that by modulation of the external coupling field, incoherent pumping rates, and detuning of the probe light, the GH shifts in the reflected and transmitted probe light can be controlled. Our results show that enhanced GH shifts of reflected and transmitted probe beams can be obtained by simultaneous use of incoherent pumping rates and detuning of the probe light. Moreover, we find that the GH shifts in both reflected and transmitted probe beams can be negative or positive at certain angles of the incident probe field. Thus, these results may provide some new possibilities for technological applications in all-optical systems based on nanostructure devices.

Goos–Hänchen shift of partially coherent light fields in double quantum dots

Muqaddar Abbas, Ziauddin Ziauddin, Sajid Qamar

Goos–Hänchen (GH) shifts in the reflected and transmitted light are investigated for p-polarized partially coherent light beams incident on a cavity having a quantum dot (QD) system as the intracavity medium. The coherent coupling between the two quantum dots via a tunneling field leads to tunneling-induced transparency and giant Kerr nonlinearity with vanishing absorption. The Kerr nonlinearity of the double QD system thus increases the amplitude of GH shifts in the reflected and transmitted light. The influence of the spatial coherence and the beam width of the partially coherent light fields on GH shifts in the reflected and transmitted light are also investigated, and large GH shifts are reported for the small range of the spatial coherence and the beam width of the partially coherent light field.

Study of Goos–Hänchen shifts of partially coherent light fields using a triple quantum dot system in the presence of giant Kerr nonlinearity

Muqaddar Abbas, Sajid Qamar

The coherent coupling between three quantum dots via tunneling fields leads to double tunneling-induced transparency and giant Kerr nonlinearity with vanishing absorption. This creates the possibility to achieve self-phase modulation in semiconductor nanostructures via controllable tunneling under the conditions of low light levels. As a result, a considerably high refractive index can be obtained. We suggest an intracavity medium which consists of triple quantum dot molecules to control the Goos–Hänchen (GH) shifts in the reflected light. For a suitable design of a triple quantum dot system, our results show that relatively large positive and negative GH shifts are achievable, without significant distortion, using partially coherent incident light fields.
