Hybrid coherent light: modeling quantum dot superluminescent diodes — •Franziska Friedrich and Reinhold Walser — Institute for Applied Physics, TU Darmstadt, Germany

Quantum dot superluminescent diodes show unusual light characteristics. On the one hand they are spectrally broad (THz) like a thermal light source, when considering the first order field correlation function. On the other hand, they exhibit a suppressed second order intensity noise spectrum like a coherent laser. This novel state of the electromagnetic field is called hybrid coherent light [1,2,3]. It is a interesting topic for fundamental research and has high potential for applications, e.g. in medical diagnostics.
In collaboration with the experimental group of Prof. W. Elsäßer (IAP/TUD) we developed a basic model of the diode to describe the emitted light and its correlation properties.
