Phase-dependent quantum interferences with three-level artificial atoms
arXiv:1703.09588
Abstract
The phase dependence of the cavity quantum dynamics in a driven equidistant three-level ladder-type system found in a quantum well structure with perpendicular transition dipoles is investigated in the good cavity limit. The pumping laser phases are directly transferred to the superposed amplitudes of the cavity-quantum-well interaction. Their phase difference may be tuned in order to obtain destructive quantum interferences. Therefore, the cavity field vanishes although the emitter continues to be pumped.
