Dipole induced transparency in waveguide coupled photonic crystal cavities
TLDR
In this article, a single weakly coupled quantum dot can control the transmission of photons through a photonic crystal cavity that is coupled to waveguides on the chip and demonstrated dipole induced transparency.Abstract:
We demonstrate dipole induced transparency in an integrated photonic crystal device. We show that a single weakly coupled quantum dot can control the transmission of photons through a photonic crystal cavity that is coupled to waveguides on the chip. Control over the quantum dot and cavity resonance via local temperature tuning, as well as efficient out-coupling with an integrated grating structure is demonstrated.read more

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the naturally occurring electromagnetic field chirality that arises in nanobeam waveguides leads to unidirectional photon emission from quantum dot spin states, with resultant in-plane transfer of matter-qubit information.

High- Q photonic nanocavity in a two-dimensional photonic crystal
TL;DR: A silicon-based two-dimensional photonic-crystal slab is used to fabricate a nanocavity with Q = 45,000 and V = 7.0 × 10-14 cm3; the value of Q/V is 10–100 times larger than in previous studies, underlying the realization that light should be confined gently in order to be confined strongly.
