Exciton-photon complexes and dynamics in the concurrent strong-weak coupling regime of singular site-controlled cavity quantum electrodynamics

Abstract

We investigate the exciton complexes photoluminescence, dynamics and photon statistics in the concurrent strong weak coupling regime in our unique site controlled singular inverted pyramidal InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots photonic crystal cavities platform. Different from a clear boundary between strong and weak QD cavity coupling, we demonstrate the strong and weak coupling can coexist dynamically, as a form of intermediate regime mediated by phonon scattering. The detuning dependent microphotoluminescence spectrum reveals concurrence of exciton cavity polariton mode avoided crossing, as a signature of Rabi doublet of the strong coupled system, the blue shifting of coupled exciton cavity mode energy near zero detuning ascribed to the formation of collective states mediated by phonon assisted coupling, and their partial out of synchronization linewidth narrowing linked to their mixed behavior. By detailing the optical features of strongly confined exciton-photon complexes and the quantum statistics of coupled cavity photons, we reveal the dynamics and antibunching/bunching photon statistical signatures of the concurrent strong weak intermediate coupled system at near zero-detuning. This study suggests our device has potential for new and subtle cavity quantum electrodynamical phenomena, cavity enhanced indistinguishable single photon generation, and cluster state generation via the exciton-photon complexes for quantum networks.
