“…The splitting has been observed from both the atomic fluorescence spectrum [88] and the transmission resonances of empty cavity [89]. Simultaneously, the phenomenon of splitting called vacuum Rabi splitting (VRS) is used to describe the quantum properties of EM fields [90].…”

Abstract:The interaction of exciton-plasmon coupling and the conversion of exciton-plasmon-photon have been widely investigated experimentally and theoretically. In this review, we introduce the exciton-plasmon interaction from basic principle to applications. There are two kinds of exciton-plasmon coupling, which demonstrate different optical properties. The strong exciton-plasmon coupling results in two new mixed states of light and matter separated energetically by a Rabi splitting that exhibits a characteristic anticrossing behavior of the exciton-LSP energy tuning. Compared to strong coupling, such as surface-enhanced Raman scattering, surface plasmon (SP)-enhanced absorption, enhanced fluorescence, or fluorescence quenching, there is no perturbation between wave functions; the interaction here is called the weak coupling. SP resonance (SPR) arises from the collective oscillation induced by the electromagnetic field of light and can be used for investigating the interaction between light and matter beyond the diffraction limit. The study on the interaction between SPR and exaction has drawn wide attention since its discovery not only due to its contribution in deepening and broadening the understanding of SPR but also its contribution to its application in light-emitting diodes, solar cells, low threshold laser, biomedical detection, quantum information processing, and so on.

“…1, that our model reproduces with an excellent agreement. On the contrary, other models, with their particular initial condition [8,10,12] cannot account for these spectra beyond the mere prediction of the line splitting. The shortcoming of downplaying the im-portance of the quantum state that is realized in the system owing to pumping, has as its worst consequence a misunderstanding of the results, the most likely being the qualification of weak-coupling (WC) for a system in SC that cannot be spectrally resolved because of decoherence-induced broadening of the lines.…”

“…In the ample literature devoted to the description of this spectral shape [8,9,10,11,12], the seminal work of Ref. [8] paid little attention to the excitation (using a coherent state as an initial condition) and neglected dissipation, while works such as [9,11] addressed the case of coherent pumping. Ref.…”

Strong Coupling of Quantum Dots in Microcavities

We show that strong-coupling (SC) of light and matter as it is realized with quantum dots (QDs) in microcavities differs substantially from the paradigm of atoms in optical cavities. The type of pumping used in semiconductors yields new criteria to achieve SC, with situations where the pump hinders, or on the contrary, favours it. We analyze one of the seminal experimental observation of SC of a QD in a pillar microcavity [Reithmaier et al., Nature (2004)] as an illustration of our main statements.

“…To evidence quantum behavior in the photoluminescence spectrum not affordable by classical oscillators, one has to consider the case in which more than one photon are bound to the matter. In this case, the emission frequencies exhibit anharmonicity [16] and thus, when the system emits a photon different emission peaks will be seen depending on the number of photons bound [17,18]. The condition for observing Rabi splitting between n photons and one emitter is now given by [13,19]:…”

Strong coupling of two quantum emitters to a single light mode: The dissipative Tavis-Cummings ladder

A criterion for strong coupling between two quantum emitters and a single resonant light mode in a cavity is presented. The criterion takes into account the escape of cavity photons and the spontaneous emission of the emitters, which are modeled as two level systems. By using such criterion, the dissipative Tavis-Cummings ladder of states is constructed, and it is shown that the inclusion of one more emitter with respect to the Jaynes-Cummings (single emitter) case increases the effective parameter region in which n th order Rabi splitting is observed.
