Electromagnetically induced grating with second field quantization in spherical semiconductor quantum dots
摘要: A new approach for diffracting the weak probe beam into higher-order directions is proposed via electromagnetically induced grating in second field quantization formalism, offering a new way for implementations of quantum information with semiconductor quantum dots. The formalism of second field quantization allows describing atoms and photons as a many-body system. An induced diffraction grating is formed based on the electromagnetic induced transparency when a standing-wave coupling field is applied to a spherical quantum dot as a three-level system. Due to phase modulation, the zeroth-order light intensity becomes weak, and the first-order diffraction is improved affectedly. On the contrary, the probe beam is barely diffracted via absorption modulation. The simulation results verify that photon numbers of probe and control fields, as well as other parameters in the QD, can lead to the diffraction efficiency of phase grating to be improved. Phase diffraction grating accompanied with a high transmissivity is demonstrated, and the first-order diffraction efficiency reaches 30%. Also, the impact of QD dimensions on its optical response is investigated. This model may find potential applications in designing the semiconductor quantum dot-based photonic devices in optical communications and quantum information networks.

Electromagnetically induced grating in semiconductor quantum dot and metal nanoparticle hybrid system by considering nonlocality effects
摘要: The optical polarization from a hybrid system including a closely spaced spherical SQD (modeled as a three-level V-type system) and a metal nanoparticle which are considered classically and are connected by the dipole–dipole interaction mechanism is investigated. The interaction between the SQD and the MNP shows an interesting optical response. In the weak probe field regime and MNP nonlocality correction, the absorption spectrum of the hybrid system exhibits an EIT window with two absorption peaks and the plasmon-assisted quantum interference plays an important role in the position and amplitude of these peaks, which are intensely altered by including the nonlocal effects. The probe diffraction grating is created based on the excitons-induced transparency by applying a standing-wave coupling field. The results of this study are useful in numerous areas of all-optical communications.

Optical properties and electromagnetically induced grating in a hybrid semiconductor quantum dot-metallic nanorod system
摘要: An arti?cial molecule consisting of an SQD and an MNR embedded in 3D photonic crystal is proposed to realize EIG. Using the quantum mechanical density matrix approach, we have derived an expression of the absorption coe?cient in the SQD in presence of MNR. Nanoparticle geometry can modify the local ?elds that determine SQD-MNP coupling and to engineer the hybrid optical response. The probe absorption is reduced via a strong coupling ?eld, demonstrating spectral transparency window. It is worth noting that the background affects the relaxations of SQD. So, by making use of 3D photonic crystal as the background medium, reduced decay rate and consequently substantial local-?eld enhancement rate are provided. Based on EIT effect and a strong standing-wave ?eld, diffraction grating is achievable. The ?rst-order diffraction intensity can reach its maximum by tuning the system parameters. This model may be useful in designing new devices in all-optical communication.
