Quantum cascade lasers can be modeled within a hierarchy of different approaches: Standard rate equations for the electron densities in the levels, semiclassical Boltzmann equation for the microscopic distribution functions, and quantum…
Double barrier heterostructures are model systems for the study of electron tunneling and discrete energy levels in a quantum well (QW). Until now resonant tunneling phenomena in metallicQW have been observed for limited thicknesses (1-2…
Quantum transport on structured networks is strongly influenced by interference effects, which can dramatically modify how information propagates through a system. We develop a quantum-information-theoretic framework for scattering on…
A simple two-well design for terahertz quantum cascade lasers is proposed which is based on scattering injection and the efficient extraction of electrons from the lower laser level by resonant tunneling. In contrast to existing designs…
The first global quantum simulation of semiconductor-based quantum-cascade lasers is presented. Our three-dimensional approach allows to study in a purely microscopic way the current-voltage characteristics of state-of-the-art unipolar…
Interband cascade lasers (ICLs) stand out due to their low threshold current and minimal power consumption, rendering them viable sources for compact and mobile devices in the mid-infrared. Since their first demonstration, they experienced…
We present a unified analytical framework for resonant optical tunnelling in three-layer photonic systems embedded in a transparent dielectric medium. Compact expressions for the transmission coefficient are derived using a generalized…
We developed a time-dependent density-matrix model to study photon-assisted (PA) electron transport in quantum cascade lasers. The Markovian equation of motion for the density matrix in the presence of an optical field is solved for an…
In this paper we show an approach to electron transport in double barrier structures which unifies the well known sequential and resonant tunneling models in the widest range of transport regimes, from completely coherent to completely…
We propose an asymmetric double quantum well structure with a common continuum and investigate the effect of resonant tunneling on the control of coherent electron population transfer between the two quantum wells. By numerically solving…
We study quantum coherence of strongly interacting cold bosons in a double-well potential driven by a laser field. The system is initially in a Fock state and, for either with or without a static tilting field, evolves into the coherent…
We present diagrammatic transport theory including self-consistent nonlinear enhancement and dissipation in the multiple scattering regime. Our model of Vollhardt-W\"olfle transport of photons is fit-parameter-free and raises the claim that…
In this paper, we present a large signal and switching analysis for the Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor Laser (TL) to reveal its optical and electrical behavior under high current injection conditions. Utilizing appropriate models for…
The reflectionless coherent light transport in the coupled resonator array is investigated in the presence of intra-resonator intermodal coupling between the clockwise and counterclockwise modes, which plays a constructive role for…
We study a system of two quantum dots, each with several discrete levels, which are coherently coupled to a microwave oscillator. They are attached to electronic leads and coupled to a phonon bath, both leading to inelastic processes. For a…
The linewidth in intersubband transitions can be significantly reduced below the sum of the lifetime broadening for the involved states, if the scattering environment is similar for both states. This is studied within a nonequilibrium Green…
Resonant tunneling through identical potential barriers is a textbook problem in quantum mechanics. Its solution yields total transparency (100% tunneling) at discrete energies. This dramatic phenomenon results from coherent interference…
We report the effect of a coherent drive on transient lasing in three-level $\Lambda $ and $\Xi$ configurations ($c\leftrightarrow a\leftrightarrow b$). We show that the presence of a resonant coherent drive on the $a\leftrightarrow c$…
Increasing and stabilizing the coherence of superconducting quantum circuits and resonators is of utmost importance for various technologies ranging from quantum information processors to highly sensitive detectors of low-temperature…
The development of the semiconductor quantum cascade laser (QCL) [1] has enabled bright coherent sources operating at frequencies between the optical (>100 THz) and electronic (<0.5 THz) ranges opening this frequency region for fundamental…
