All-optical processes in double quantum dot structure

摘要

The ladder-plus-Y double quantum dot structure was modeled for all-optical processing by combining the density matrix theory with the pulse width description of the applied pulse. The momentum matrix elements are calculated including the wetting layer. The ladder-plus-Y structure exhibits pattern-free output with high bit rate (50 Tbps), which is critical in optical communication applications. It is shown that very high ground-state occupation with periodic shape for state occupations is critical in obtaining a pattern-free eye diagram. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America
