We present spectroscopic experiments and theory of a quantum dot driven bichromatically by two strong coherent lasers. In particular, we explore the regime where the drive strengths are substantial enough to merit a general non-perturbative analysis, resulting in a rich higher-order Floquet dressed-state energy structure. We show high resolution spectroscopy measurements with a variety of laser detunings performed on a single InGaAs quantum dot, with the resulting features well explained with a time-dependent quantum master equation and Floquet analysis. Notably, driving the quantum dot resonance and one of the subsequent Mollow triplet sidepeaks, we observe the disappearance and subsequent reappearance of the central transition and transition resonant with detuned-laser at high detuned-laser pump strengths and additional higher-order effects, e.g. emission triplets at higher harmonics and signatures of higher order Floquet states. For a similar excitation condition but with an off-resonant primary laser, we observe similar spectral features but with an enhanced inherent spectral asymmetry.

We report on the coherent reflection spectroscopy of a high-quality factor micropillar, in the strong coupling regime with a single InGaAs annealed quantum dot. The absolute reflectivity measurement is used to study the characteristics of our device at low and high excitation power. The strong coupling is obtained with a g=16 mueV coupling strength in a 7.3mum diameter micropillar, with a cavity spectral width kappa=20.5 mueV (Q=65 000). The factor of merit of the strong-coupling regime, 4g/kappa=3, is the current state-of-the-art for a quantum dot-micropillar system.
Elastic scattering of laser radiation due to vacuum polarization by spatially modulated strong electromagnetic fields is considered. The Bragg interference arising at a specific impinging direction of the probe wave concentrates the scattered light in specular directions. The interference maxima are enhanced with respect to the usual vacuum polarization effect proportional to the square of the number of modulation periods within the interaction region. The Bragg scattering can be employed to detect the vacuum polarization effect in a setup of multiple crossed super-strong laser beams with parameters envisaged in the future Extreme Light Infrastructure.
The dispersion cancellation observed in Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference between frequency-entangled photon pairs has been the basis of quantum optical coherence tomography and quantum clock synchronization. Here we explore the effect of phase dispersion on ultranarrow HOM dips. We show that the higher-order dispersion, the line width of the pump laser, and the spectral shape of the parametric fluorescence have a strong effect on the dispersion cancellation in the high-resolution regime with several experimental verifications. Perfect dispersion cancellation with a linewidth of 3mu m is also demonstrated through 25 mm of water.
In this paper we use electrically detected optical excitation spectroscopy of individual erbium ions in silicon to determine their optical and paramagnetic properties simultaneously. We demonstrate that this high spectral resolution technique can be exploited to observe interactions typically unresolvable in silicon using conventional spectroscopy techniques due to inhomogeneous broadening. In particular, we resolve the Zeeman splitting of the 4I15/2 ground and 4I13/2 excited state separately and in strong magnetic fields we observe the anti-crossings between Zeeman components of different crystal field levels. We discuss the use of this electronic detection technique in identifying the symmetry and structure of erbium sites in silicon.
Coherent Raman scattering microscopy is a fast, label-free and chemically specific imaging technique that has a high potential for future in-vivo optical histology. However, its imaging depth into tissues is limited to the sub-millimeter range by absorption and scattering. Performing coherent Raman imaging in a fiber endoscope system is a crucial step to image deep inside living tissues and provide the information inaccessible with current microscopy tools. However the development of coherent Raman endoscopy has been hampered by several issues in the fiber delivery of the excitation pulses and signal collection. Here, we present a flexible, compact, and multimodal nonlinear endoscope (4.2 mm outer diameter, 71 mm rigid length) based on a resonantly scanned hollow-core Kagome-lattice double-clad fiber. The fiber design allows distortion-less, background-free delivery of femtosecond excitation pulses and the back-collection of nonlinear signals through the same fiber. Sub-micron spatial resolution together with large field of view is made possible by the combination of a miniature objective lens together with a silica microsphere lens inserted into the fiber core. We demonstrate coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering, 2-photon fluorescence and second harmonic generation imaging with 0.8 {mu}m resolution over a field of view up to 320 {mu}m and at a rate of 0.8 frames/s. These results pave the way for intra-operative label-free imaging applied to real-time histopathology diagnosis and surgery guidance.
