Quantum dot microlaser under external optical feedback. — •Leon Meßner1, Elisabeth Schlottmann1, Sören Kreinberg1, Steffen Holzinger1, Christian Schneider2, Sven Höfling2,3, Martin Kamp2, Janik Wolters1, and Stephan Reitzenstein11Institut für Festkörperphysik, Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin, Germany — 2Technische Physik, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen Research Center for Complex Material Systems, Universität Würzburg, Würzburg, Germany — 3Present address: SUPA, School of Physics and Astronomy, University of St Andrews, United Kingdom.

To study the transition form linear to non-linear and chaotic behavior, semiconductor lasers under self feedback are an excellent and widely investigated model system. Similar, quantum dots embedded in photonic nanocavities provide an excellent platform for investigating the border between classical laser emission and quantum optical single photon emitters. In our experiments on feedback coupled micropillar lasers with only a few quantum dots in the active layer we combine both research fields, trying to reach the transition between the classical and the quantum regime of the involved nonlinear dynamics. We setup strong feedback-coupling of quantum dot micropillars while leaving options to explore changes in feedback strength and polarization. Our observations include changes in the second order autocorrelation function and intensity of the emitted light. Our studies promise not only novel insights into the underlying physics, but depending on emitter and feedback types a multitude of applications exist e.g. in quantum information science or cryptography.
