Stochastic polarization switching induced by optical injection in bimodal quantum-dot micropillar lasers

Abstract: Mutual coupling and injection locking of semiconductor lasers is of great interest in non-linear dynamics and its applications for instance in secure data communication and photonic reservoir computing. Despite its importance, it has hardly been studied in microlasers operating at µW light levels. In this context, vertically emitting quantum dot micropillar lasers are of high interest. Usually, their light emission is bimodal, and the gain competition of the associated linearly polarized fundamental emission m… Show more

“…The same is expected to hold for nanolasers, even though at the present time fewer experimental results are available, for comparison. Nonetheless, the very good match between general dynamical observations in both microand nanolasers and the predictions based on RESE-like models lend further credibility to the soundness of this simple modeling approach [78,[109][110][111][112][113][114][115][116][117][118][119][120].…”

“…Investigating different modes will be especially interesting for multimode systems with nontrivial correlations, e.g. lasers with multiple modes that show gain competition 45 , emitters coupled via a joint carrier reservoir 46 or systems subject to feedback 47 and even for molecular aggregates relevant in biochemical processes 48 . Generally speaking, multichannel homodyne experiments bear great promise for studying steady state fluctuations in optical systems that show dynamics on the timescale of few picoseconds, such as strongly coupled semiconductor systems where frequency-resolved photon correlations are known to carry detailed information about the system 49 .…”
