Resonant tunneling diodes strongly coupled to the cavity field
Abstract
We demonstrate resonant tunneling diodes, embedded in double metal cavities, strongly coupled to the cavity field, while maintaining their electronic properties. We measure the polariton dispersion and find a relative vacuum Rabi splitting of 11%, which explicitly qualifies for the strong-coupling regime. Additionally, we show that electronic transport has a significant influence on the polaritons by modulating the coupling strength. The merge between electronic transport and polaritonic physics in our devices opens up different perspectives of cavity quantum electro-dynamics and integrated photonics.
