Description
Summary:We studied the optical properties of a hybrid structure that was composed of a semiconductor quantum dot and a doubly clamped suspended graphene nanoribbon nanoresonator. We obtained analytical results for the linear and third-order optical susceptibilities of the hybrid system. The spectrum of the linear susceptibility exhibited a single resonance, and its position depended on the value of the on-resonance exciton energy and the exciton–nanoribbon resonator coupling strength coefficient; the amplitude of the resonance was independent of the values of these parameters. The third-order optical susceptibility spectrum exhibited a sharp resonance arising at low frequencies of the probe field, the position of which depended only on the frequency of the fundamental flexural phonon mode. It also presented a broader resonance arising at higher frequencies of the probe field, the position of which was determined both by the coupling strength coefficient and by the exciton frequency; its amplitude depended solely on the exciton–photon coupling strength.
