Abstract
The coupled semiconductor microcavity is a system in which there are three oscillators, two photonic and one electronic (quantum well excitons). It develops three strongly coupled modes which allow a wide design range for a variety of optoelectronic applications. The MBE grown structure is comprised of two λ sized GaAs cavities containing InxGa1−xAs quantum wells, separated by a common mirror. Reflectivity measurements show both two coupled photon mode behavior and three coupled mode behavior, i.e., two photon and one exciton, depending on the relative position of the exciton resonance.Keywords
