Variational master equation for a driven quantum dot embedded in an optical resonator
Year: 2016
Type: preprint
Abstract: In this work, we study the dynamics of a quantum dot embedded in a QED cavity and driven by a coherent electromagnetic field, while interacting with a bath of acoustic phonons. We address the phonon dissipative effects on the resonance fluorescence of the system by deriving a variational master equation, valid for a broader range of temperatures, pumping rates, and quantum dot-cavity coupling intensities, than previously reported approaches.
