Abstract:

We investigate strong coupling between a single quantum dot QD and photonic crystal cavity through transmission modification of an evanescently coupled waveguide. Strong coupling is observed through modification of both the cavity scattering spectrum and waveguide transmission. We achieve an overall Q of 5800 and an exciton-photon coupling strength of 21 GHz for this integrated cavity-waveguide structure. The transmission contrast for the bare cavity mode is measured to be 24. These results represent important progress towards integrated cavity quantum electrodynamics using a planar photonic architecture.
