Abstract

Numerical model for a defect-containing lattice of microcavities with embedded ultracold atomic clusters (quantum dots) is developed. It is assumed that certain fractions of quantum dots are absent, which leads to transformation of polariton spectrum of the overall structure. Using the virtual crystal approximation based on the diagonalization of the averaged Hamiltonian of the system, dispersion relations for polariton modes are derived. The group velocity of polariton excitations in the structure under study is calculated depending on the structure defects concentrations and elastic strain. It is shown that, as a result of elastic strain of the system and presence of structural defects under study, it is possible to achieve necessary changes in its energy structure (and, therefore, optical properties) determined by the rearrangement of the polariton spectrum. This results in formation of slow light mode that can be efficiently controlled by the externally applied strain. The obtained results demonstrate the possibility of controlling the group velocity of excitations, which is responsible for signaling rates in optical integrated circuits of optoelectronic devices. Numerical simulations performed on the basis of the constructed model contribute to modeling of the new class of functional porous materials, namely the so-called polaritonic systems (microcavity arrays with embedded quantum dots) where controlling of propagation of electromagnetic excitations is accomplished by an appropriate introduction of structural defects and elastic deformation.
