Dipole Induced Transparency in Drop-Filter Cavity-Waveguide Systems

Abstract

We show that a waveguide that is normally opaque due to interaction with a drop-filter cavity can be made transparent when the drop filter is also coupled to a dipole, even when the vacuum Rabi frequency of the dipole is much less than the cavity decay rate. The condition for transparency is simply achieving large Purcell factors. We describe how this effect can be useful for designing quantum repeaters for long distance quantum communication.

Dipole-induced transparency in a cavity-waveguide system with attractive cavity modes

Zhao-Hui Peng, Chun-Xia Jia, Yuqing Zhang +4 more

Dipole-induced transparency (DIT) is one of the most well-known transparency effects in quantum optics and has wide applications in scalable quantum information processing and quantum computation. However, most of the existing literatures only focuses on the DIT effect with coherent dipole-cavity coupling, thus its universality in other types of coupling is still to be clarified. Here, we propose a feasible scheme to realize dissipative dipole-cavity coupling with the assistance of a highly dissipative microcavity, and explicitly exhibit cavity-mode attraction. We then investigate the DIT effect in a cavity-waveguide system with attractive cavity modes and find that it can still be achievable even though the probe light is resonant with two attractive cavity modes. Furthermore, we reveal its underlying transparency mechanism with eigenfrequencies and the effective susceptibility of the dipole-cavity system, and show that its transparency lies in the destructive interference of two attractive cavity modes with splitting damping rates instead of splitting resonance frequencies in coherent coupling. Moreover, we find that the attractive and repulsive phenomena of the effective susceptibility, which also plays an important role in the DIT effect, exist in the dipole-cavity system. Our findings may not only be of importance for gaining a more comprehensive understanding on the DIT effect, but also have potential applications in quantum networks.

Ultrafast switching by controlling Rabi splitting

Gianluca Manzacca, Gabriella Cincotti, Kurt Hingerl

We analyze the behavior of a quantum dot embedded in an add-drop filter for optical signal processing applications. The joint effects of dipole induced transparency and electromagnetic induced transparency, which shift the transparency peak induced by a dipole in an add-drop filter due to vacuum Rabi splitting, have been considered. The mathematical model and some different conditions for tuning the transparency peak are derived for application to all optical switching and wavelength tunable devices.

Multipartite entanglement generation with dipole induced transparency effect in indirectly coupled dipole-microcavity systems

Zhaohui Peng, Chun-Xia Jia, Yuqing Zhang Yuqing Zhang +2 more

We propose a feasible scheme of generating multipartite entanglement with the dipole induced transparency (DIT) effect in indirectly coupled dipole-microcavity systems. It is shown that the transmission spectrum is closely related with the interference of dipole-microcavity systems, and we can generate different classes of multipartite entanglement, e.g., the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state, the W state, and the Dicke state, of the dipole emitters just by choosing an appropriate frequency of the incident photon. Benefiting from the DIT effect, the schemes may work in the bad or low-Q cavity regime only if the large Purcell factor of the dipole-microcavity system is fulfilled, and they are also insensitive to experimental noise, which may be feasible with present accessible technology.

Role of cavity induced decay-interference effect on vacuum-Rabi splitted spectrum

Bibhas Kumar Dutta, P.K. Mahapatra

We have shown that an ultranarrow dark region can be associated with the feature of significant amount of vaccuum-Rabi splitting in the absorption spectrum of a weak coherent field probing a two-level atom strongly coupled to two degenerate cavity-modes with preselected polarizations. The cavity-induced transparency is produced by the decay-interference of the two independent cavity modes interacting with the same reservoir. It has been shown that the resonant probe transparency is independent of the individual decay rates of the cavity modes. The present model exhibits the possibility of obtaining the narrow dark transparency associated with the significant amount of Rabi splitting in the absorption spectrum with the appreciable value of the cavity-losses.
