Phonon-assisted tunnelling in a double quantum dot molecule immersed in a cavity

摘要

The effects caused by phonon-assisted tunnelling (PhAT) in a double quantum dot (QD) molecule immersed in a cavity were studied under the quantum Markovian master equation formalism in order to account for dissipation phenomena. We explain how for higher PhAT rates, a stronger interaction between a QD and the cavity at off-resonance takes place through the resonant interaction of another QD and the cavity, where the QDs interact through tunnelling. A closer look at the system's allowed optical transitions as a function of PhAT rates showed coalescence of the transition energies, leading to a loss of spectroscopic resolution in the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum. This coalescence occurs at several exceptional points, suggesting a quantum dynamical phase transition.
