Controlled cavity QED and single-photon emission using a photonic-crystal waveguide cavity system
We introduce a photonic crystal waveguide-cavity system for controlling single-photon cavity quantum electrodynamics QED . Exploiting Bloch mode analysis and medium-dependent Green function techniques we demonstrate that the propagation of single photons can be accurately described analytically for integrated periodic waveguides with little more than four unit cells, including an output coupler...
متن کاملEmission polarization control in semiconductor quantum dots coupled to a photonic crystal microcavity.
We study the optical emission of single semiconductor quantum dots weakly coupled to a photonic-crystal micro-cavity. The linearly polarized emission of a selected quantum dot changes continuously its polarization angle, from nearly perpendicular to the cavity mode polarization at large detuning, to parallel at zero detuning, and reversing sign for negative detuning. The linear polarization rot...
متن کاملDynamically controlling the emission of single excitons in photonic crystal cavities
Single excitons in semiconductor microcavities represent a solid state and scalable platform for cavity quantum electrodynamics, potentially enabling an interface between flying (photon) and static (exciton) quantum bits in future quantum networks. While both single-photon emission and the strong coupling regime have been demonstrated, further progress has been hampered by the inability to cont...
متن کاملControlling the spontaneous emission rate of single quantum dots in a two-dimensional photonic crystal.
We observe large spontaneous emission rate modification of individual InAs quantum dots (QDs) in a 2D photonic crystal with a modified, high-Q single-defect cavity. Compared to QDs in a bulk semiconductor, QDs that are resonant with the cavity show an emission rate increase of up to a factor of 8. In contrast, off-resonant QDs indicate up to fivefold rate quenching as the local density of optic...
متن کاملSingle quantum dot spontaneous emission in a finite-size photonic crystal waveguide: proposal for an efficient "on chip" single photon gun.
Spontaneous emission rate enhancements from a single quantum dot embedded in a finite-size, planar photonic-crystal waveguide are investigated. Short waveguide lengths of only 10 to 20 unit cells are found to produce very large Purcell factors associated with a waveguidelike sharp resonance feature in the local density of photon states. Aided by theoretical insight and rigorous computational ca...
