Plasmonic Effect on the Optical Properties in a Hybrid V-Type Three-Level Quantum Dot-Metallic Nanoparticle Nanosystem

We investigated theoretically the exciton–plasmon coupling effects on the population dynamics and the absorption properties of a hybrid nanosystem composed of a metal nanoparticle (MNP) and a V-type three-level semiconductor quantum dot (SQD), which are created by the interaction with the induced dipole moments in the SQD and the MNP, respectively. Excitons of the SQD and the plasmons of the MNP in such a hybrid nanosystem could be coupled strongly or weakly to demonstrate novel properties of the hybrid system. We also find that the gain happens in such a hybrid system, because of the coherent interaction between the SQD and the MNP. Our results show that the non-linear optical response of the hybrid nanosystem can be greatly enhanced or depressed due to the exciton–plasmon couplings.

Entanglement of Two Quantum Dots with Azimuthal Angle Difference in Plasmonic Waveguide System

We investigate the properties of entanglement between two quantum dots (QDs) with an azimuthal angle difference in two different plasmonic waveguide systems where a cavity coupled to the QDs is included or not. The real space formalism and the concurrence are used in solving the eigenvalue equation and calculating the entanglement, respectively. We analyze the influence of azimuthal angle difference on the entanglement and propose several effective ways to achieve high entanglement by adjusting the detuning, the QD-cavity coupling strength, and so on. Moreover, comparing the entanglement in the two models, we demonstrate that the addition of cavity can improve the entanglement of two QDs.
