Single photon detection by cavity-assisted all-optical gain

Single photon detection by cavity-assisted all-optical gain

We consider the free-carrier dispersion effect in a semiconductor nanocavity in the limit of discrete photoexcited electron-hole pairs. This analysis reveals the possibility of ultrafast, incoherent transduction and gain from a single photon signal to a strong coherent probe field. Homodyne detectio...
