We report on the observation of spin dependent optically dressed states and optical Stark effect on an individual Mn spin in a semiconductor quantum dot. The vacuum-to-exciton or the exciton-to-biexciton transitions in a Mn-doped quantum dot are optically dressed by a strong laser field and the resulting spectral signature is measured in photoluminescence. We demonstrate that the energy of any spin state of a Mn atom can be independently tuned using the optical Stark effect induced by a control laser. High resolution spectroscopy reveals a power, polarization and detuning dependent Autler-Townes splitting of each optical transition of the Mn-doped quantum dot. This experiment demonstrates a complete optical resonant control of the exciton-Mn system.

The optical Stark effect is a tell-tale signature of coherent light-matter interaction in excitonic systems, wherein an irradiating light beam tunes exciton transition frequencies. Here we show that, when excitons are placed in a nanophotonic cavity, the excitonic Stark effect can become highly nonlinear, exhibiting multi-valued and hysteretic Stark shifts that depend on the history of the irradiating light. This multistable Stark effect (MSE) arises from feedback between the cavity mode occupation and excitonic population, mediated by the Stark-induced mutual tuning of the cavity and excitonic resonances. Strikingly, the MSE manifests even for very dilute exciton concentrations and can yield discontinuous Stark shift jumps of order meV. We expect that the MSE can be realized in readily available transition metal dichalcogenide excitonic systems placed in planar photonic cavities, at modest pump intensities. This phenomenon can provide new means to engineer coupled states of light and matter that can persist even in the single exciton limit.
We observe dressed states and quantum interference effects in a strongly driven three-level quantum dot ladder system. The effect of a strong coupling field on one dipole transition is measured by a weak probe field on the second dipole transition us ing differential reflection. When the coupling energy is much larger than both the homoge-neous and inhomogeneous linewidths an Autler-Townes splitting is observed. Striking differences are observed when the transitions resonant with the strong and weak fields are swapped, particularly when the coupling energy is nearly equal to the measured linewidth. This result is attributed to quantum interference: a modest destructive or constructive interference is observed depending on the pump / probe geometry. The data demonstrate that coher-ence of both the bi-exciton and the exciton is maintained in this solid-state system, even under intense illumina-tion, which is crucial for prospects in quantum information processing and non-linear optical devices.
We investigate a singly-charged quantum dot under a strong optical driving field by probing the system with a weak optical field. When the driving field is detuned from the trion transition, the probe absorption spectrum is shifted from the trion res onance as a consequence of the dynamic Stark effect. Simultaneously, a gain sideband is created, resulting from the coherent energy transfer between the optical fields through the quantum dot nonlinearity. As the pump detuning is moved from red to blue, we map out the anticrossing of these two spectral lines. The optical Bloch equations for a stationary two-level atom can be used to describe the numerous spectral features seen in this nano solid state system.
Magnetotransport measurements are presented on paramagnetic (Hg,Mn)Te quantum wells (QWs) with an inverted band structure. Gate-voltage controlled density dependent measurements reveal an unusual behavior in the transition regime from n- to p-type co nductance: A very small magnetic field of approximately 70 mT is sufficient to induce a transition into the nu = -1 quantum Hall state, which extends up to at least 10 Tesla. The onset field value remains constant for a unexpectedly wide gate-voltage range. Based on temperature and angle-dependent magnetic field measurements we show that the unusual behavior results from the realization of the quantum anomalous Hall state in these magnetically doped QWs.
Materials combining the optoelectronic functionalities of semiconductors with control of the spin degree of freedom are highly sought after for the advancement of quantum technology devices. Here, we report the paramagnetic Ruddlesden-Popper hybrid p erovskite Mn:(PEA)2PbI4 (PEA = phenethylammonium) in which the interaction of isolated Mn2+ ions with magnetically brightened excitons leads to circularly polarized photoluminescence. Using a combination of superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry and magneto-optical experiments, we find that the Brillouin-shaped polarization curve of the photoluminescence follows the magnetization of the material. This indicates coupling between localized manganese magnetic moments and exciton spins via a magnetic proximity effect. The saturation polarization of 15% at 4 K and 6 T indicates a highly imbalanced spin population and demonstrates that manganese doping enables efficient control of excitonic spin states in Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites. Our finding constitutes the first example of polarization control in magnetically doped hybrid perovskites and will stimulate research on this highly tuneable material platform that promises tailored interactions between magnetic moments and electronic states.
