Floquet engineering of excitons in semiconductor quantum dots

Abstract

Within the Floquet theory of periodically driven quantum systems, we demonstrate that a high-frequency electromagnetic field can be used as an effective tool to control excitonic properties of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). It is shown, particularly, that the field both decreases the exciton binding energy and dynamically stabilizes the exciton, increasing its radiative lifetime. The developed theory can serve as a basis for the ultrafast method to tune spectral characteristics of the QD-based photon emitters by a high-frequency field.
