Compared to the conventional above-band pump, in our new scheme an additional resonant driving field is applied on the quantum dot-cavity system. By employing the master equation theory and the Jaynes-Cummings model, we are able to study the interesting phenomenon of the coupling system. To compare the different behaviors between using our new scheme and the conventional method,we carry out investigatioin for both the 'good system'and 'more realistic system', characterizing several important parameters, such as the cavity population, exciton population and the second-order correlation function at zero time delay. Through numerical simulations,we demonstrate that for both the good system and more realistic system, their lasing regimes can be displaced into other regimes in the presence of a resonant driving field.展开更多

Different from two kinds of the traditional passive modulations, our design can realize the passive modulation of EIT phenomenon by adding another bright mode resonator. Simulated and experimental results show that the transmission peak varies for incident THz waves with different polarization directions due to its asymmetric structure, which provides a novel way to realize high efficiency switch and modulation.展开更多

With two 1 W semiconductor diode lasers pumping, the output power of TEM00 laser is 920 m W, and the optical conversion efficiency is close to 46%. By changing the relative orientations of both Nd:Gd VO4 crystals, the polarization characteristics of laser are varied. In particular, by keeping the c-axes of two Nd:Gd VO4 crystals orthogonal to each other and adjusting two diode pump lasers to operate at the same power level, the completely unpolarized light is obtained.展开更多
