Coherent dynamics of individual excitons in a quantum dot embedded in a nanopost
Abstract
We measured coherent ultrafast dynamics of exciton complexes in a single strongly-confined InAs quantum dot embedded in a GaAs nanopost. Such a photonic structure combines a wave guiding with a cavity effect and assures an enhanced light-matter coupling over a broad spectral range of 30 nm. Coherence properties of an exciton-biexciton system hosted by a quantum dot are assessed with four-wave mixing microscopy. Our results show that this broad-band photonic structure is an excellent asset to probe coherent couplings in a small set of solid state quantum systems and to investigate the coherence dynamics within the level structure of their excited states.
