When a detuned and strong laser pulse acts on an optical transition, a Stark shift of the corresponding energies occurs. We analyze how this optical Stark effect can be used to prepare and control the dark exciton occupation in a semiconductor quantum dot. The coupling between the bright and dark exciton states is facilitated by an external magnetic field. Using sequences of laser pulses, we show how the dark exciton and different superposition states can be prepared. We give simple analytic formulas, which yield a good estimate for optimal preparation parameters. The preparation scheme is quite robust against the influence of acoustic phonons. We further discuss the experimental feasibility of the used Stark pulses. Giving a clear physical picture our results will stimulate the usage of dark excitons in schemes to generate photons from quantum dots.

Several important proposals to use semiconductor quantum dots in quantum information technology rely on the control of the dark exciton ground states, such as dark exciton based qubits with a $mu$s life time. In this paper, we present an efficient wa
y to occupy the dark exciton ground state by a single short laser pulse. The scheme is based on an optical excitation with a longitudinal field component featured by, e.g., radially polarized beams or certain Laguerre-Gauss or Bessel beams. Utilizing this component, we show within a configuration interaction approach that high-energy exciton states composed of light-hole excitons and higher dark heavy-hole excitons can be addressed. When the higher exciton relaxes, a dark exciton in its ground state is created.
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.
The magnetic-field dependence of the energy spectrum, wave function, binding energy and oscillator strength of exciton states confined in a circular graphene quantum dot (CGQD) are obtained within the configuration interaction (CI) method. We predict
that: (1) excitonic effects are very significant in the CGQD as a consequence of a combination of geometric confinement, magnetic confinement and reduced screening; (2) two types of excitons (intravalley and intervalley excitons) are present in the CGQD because of the valley degree of freedom in graphene; (3) the intravalley and intervalley exciton states display different magnetic-field dependencies due to the different electron-hole symmetries of the single-particle energy spectra; (4) with increasing magnetic field, the exciton ground state in the CGQD undergoes an intravalley to intervalley transition accompanied by a change of angular momentum; (5) the exciton binding energy does not increase monotonically with the magnetic field due to the competition between geometric and magnetic confinements; and (6) the optical transitions of the intervalley and intravalley excitons can be tuned by the magnetic field and valley-dependent excitonic transitions can be realized in CGQD.
In this work we demonstrate theoretically how to use external laser field to control the population inversion of a single quantum dot exciton qubit in a nanocavity. We consider the Jaynes-Cummings model to describe the system, and the incoherent loss
es were take into account by using Lindblad operators. We have demonstrated how to prepare the initial state in a superposition of the exciton in the ground state and the cavity in a coherent state. The effects of exciton-cavity detuning, the laser-cavity detunings, the pulse area and losses over the qubit dynamics are analyzed. We also show how to use a continuous laser pumping in resonance with the cavity mode to sustain a coherent state inside the cavity, providing some protection to the qubit against cavity loss.
We demonstrate coherent optical control of a single hole spin confined to an InAs/GaAs quantum dot. A superposition of hole spin states is created by fast (10-100 ps) dissociation of a spin-polarized electron-hole pair. Full control of the hole-spin
is achieved by combining coherent rotations about two axes: Larmor precession of the hole-spin about an external Voigt geometry magnetic field, and rotation about the optical-axis due to the geometric phase shift induced by a picosecond laser pulse resonant with the hole-trion transition.
