The interaction between intersubband resonances (ISRs) and metamaterial microcavities can form a strongly coupled system where new resonances form that depend on the coupling strength. Here we present experimental evidence of strong coupling between the cavity resonance of a THz metamaterial and the ISR in a high electron mobility transistor structure with a triangular confinement. The device is electrically switched from an uncoupled to a strongly coupled regime by tuning the ISR with epitaxially grown transparent gates. An asymmetric triangular potential in the heterostructure enables ultrawide electrical tuning of ISR which is an order of magnitude higher as compared to the equivalent square well. For a single triangular well, we achieve a coupling strength of 0.52 THz, with a normalized coupling ratio of 0.26.

Single dopants in semiconductor nanostructures have been studied in great details recently as they are good candidates for quantum bits, provided they are coupled to a detector. Here we report coupling of a single As donor atom to a single-electron t ransistor (SET) in a silicon nanowire field-effect transistor. Both capacitive and tunnel coupling are achieved, the latter resulting in a dramatic increase of the conductance through the SET, by up to one order of magnitude. The experimental results are well explained by the rate equations theory developed in parallel with the experiment.
We have suspended an Al based single-electron transistor whose island can resonate freely between the source and drain leads forming the clamps. In addition to the regular side gate, a bottom gate with a larger capacitance to the SET island is placed underneath to increase the SET coupling to mechanical motion. The device can be considered as a doubly clamped Al beam that can transduce mechanical vibrations into variations of the SET current. Our simulations based on the orthodox model, with the SET parameters estimated from the experiment, reproduce the observed transport characteristics in detail.
We investigate theoretically the effect of a magnetic field on intersubband polaritons in an asymmetric quantum well placed inside an optical resonator. It is demonstrated that the field-induced diamagnetic shift of electron subbands in the well incr eases the broadening of optical lines corresponding to intersubband electron transitions. As a consequence, the magnetic field can switch the polariton system from the regime of strong light-matter coupling to the regime of weak one. This effect paves a way to the effective control of polaritonic devices with a magnetic field.
We show that a cryogenic amplifier composed of a homemade GaAs high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) is suitable for current-noise measurements in a mesoscopic device at dilution-refrigerator temperatures. The lower noise characteristics of our ho memade HEMT leads to a lower noise floor in the experimental setup and enables more efficient current-noise measurement than is available with a commercial HEMT. We present the dc transport properties of the HEMT and the gain and noise characteristics of the amplifier. With the amplifier employed for current-noise measurements in a quantum point contact, we demonstrate the high resolution of the measurement setup by comparing it with that of the conventional one using a commercial HEMT.
We present a detailed study of the electroluminescence of intersubband devices operating in the light-matter strong coupling regime. The devices have been characterized by performing angle resolved spectroscopy that shows two distinct light intensity spots in the momentum-energy phase diagram. These two features of the electroluminescence spectra are associated with photons emitted from the lower polariton branch and from the weak coupling of the intersubband transition with an excited cavity mode. The same electroluminescent active region has been processed into devices with and without the optical microcavity to illustrate the difference between a device operating in the strong and weak coupling regime. The spectra are very well simulated as the product of the polariton optical density of states, and a function describing the energy window in which the polariton states are populated. The voltage evolution of the spectra shows that the strong coupling regime allows the observation of the electroluminescence at energies otherwise inaccessible.
