Bloch-wave engineering of quantum dot-micropillars for cavity quantum electrodynamics experiments
arXiv:1107.2492 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.057402
Abstract
We have employed Bloch-wave engineering to realize submicron diameter ultra-high quality factor GaAs/AlAs micropillars (MPs). The design features a tapered cavity in which the fundamental Bloch mode is subject to an adiabatic transition to match the Bragg mirror Bloch mode. The resulting reduced scattering loss leads to record-high visibility of the strong coupling in MPs with modest oscillator strength quantum dots. A quality factor of 13,600 and a Rabi splitting of 85 \mueV with an estimated visibility v of 0.38 are observed for a small mode volume MP with a diameter dc of 850 nm.
