Abstract
The authors report the external control of the polariton ground state by manipulating the coupling between the intersubband transition and the photonic mode of a GaAs/AlGaAs microcavity. The vacuum-field Rabi splitting is varied by means of charge transfer between the energetically-aligned ground subbands of asymmetric tunnel-coupled quantum wells. The authors propose the use of this structure concept for implementing ultrafast modulation of intersubband polaritons.File in questo prodotto:
