From bistability to break-down of normal-mode splitting in microcavity systems — •Regina Kruse, Stefan Declair, Jens Förstner, and Stefan Schumacher — Physics Department and Center for Optoelectronics and Photonics Paderborn (CeOPP), Universität Paderborn, Paderborn, Germany

We study the nonlinear excitation dynamics of a microcavity system with normal mode splitting. Our model includes a single optical cavity mode coupled to an electronic two-level system. The results from the corresponding Maxwell-Bloch equations are compared to a full 3D FDTD calculation [1]. In agreement with earlier studies [2] we observe bistable behaviour for continuous wave excitation while scanning the frequency range around the resonances with the pump. Additionally to this steady-state behaviour we explicitly study the nonlinear system dynamics in time. With this method we are able to analyze the transition from nomal-mode splitting to bistable behaviour until the strong coupling regime breaks down for high excitation densities.
