Nonlinear optical response properties of a quantum dot embedded in a semiconductor microcavity: possible applications in quantum communication platforms (original) (raw)

2021, Journal of Modern Optics

We theoretically investigate optical bistability, mechanically induced absorption (MIA) and Fano resonance of a hybrid system comprising of a single quantum dot (QD) embedded in a solid state microcavity interacting with the quantized cavity mode and the deformation potential associated with the lattice vibration. We find that the bistability can be tuned by the QD-cavity mode coupling. We further show that the normalized power transmission displays anomalous dispersion indicating that the system can be used to generate slow light. We also demonstrate the possibility of using the system as all optomechanical Kerr switch.
