Abstract: Microcavities have long been recognized as indispensable elements in quantum photonic research due to their usefulness for enhanced light extraction and light-matter interaction. A conventional high-Q cavity structure typically allows only a single optical transition to be tuned into resonance with a specific mode. The transition to a more advanced double-cavity structure, however, introduces new and interesting possibilities such as enhancing two spectrally close optical transitions at the same time with two distinct cavity modes. Here, we investigate a cavity structure composed of a monolithic planar cavity enclosed between two semiconductor distributed Bragg reflectors (DBR) and a top dielectric mirror deposited on a fiber tip. While the bottom cavity is formed by the two DBRs, the mirror on the fiber tip and the top DBR of the semiconductor chip create a second tunable cavity. These coupled cavities exhibit mode hybridization when tuned into resonance and their splitting can be adjusted to match with the spectral separation of closely spaced optical transitions by a suitable sample design. Furthermore, we report on the simultaneous resonance tuning of the exciton and biexciton transition of a semiconductor quantum dot, each to a separate mode of the open fiber-based double cavity. Decay time measurements at simultaneous resonance showed a Purcell-factor of $F_P^X$=1.9$\pm$0.4 for the exciton transition.

Sculpting ultrastrong light-matter coupling through spatial matter structuring [0.0]
We experimentally implement a novel strategy to sculpt ultrastrong multi-mode coupling. We control the number of light-matter coupled modes, their octave-spanning frequency spectra, and their response to magnetic tuning. This offers novel pathways for controlling dissipation, tailoring quantum light sources, nonlinearities, correlations, as well as entanglement in quantum information processing.

Bosonic pair production and squeezing for optical phase measurements in long-lived dipoles coupled to a cavity [0.0]
Entanglement between atoms, generated by the exchange of virtual photons through a common cavity mode, grows exponentially fast. We propose to exploit this for quantum-enhanced sensing of an optical phase (common and differential between two ensembles) Our proposal can open unique opportunities for the observation of continuous variable entanglement in atomic systems and associated applications in next-generation optical atomic clocks.

Tuning the mode-splitting of a semiconductor microcavity with uniaxial stress [49.212762955720706]
In this work we use an open microcavity composed of a "bottom" semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) incorporating an n-i-p heterostructure. We demonstrate a reversible in-situ technique to tune the mode-splitting by applying uniaxial stress to the semiconductor DBR. A thorough study of the mode-splitting and its tuning across the stop-band leads to a quantitative understanding of the mechanism behind the results.

Entanglement in high-dimensional quantum systems, where one or more degrees of freedom of light are involved, offers increased information capacities and enables new quantum protocols. Here, we demonstrate a functional source of high-dimensional, noise-resilient hyperentangled states encoded in time-frequency and vector-vortex structured modes. We generate highly entangled photon pairs at telecom wavelength that we characterise via two-photon interference and quantum state tomography, achieving near-unity visibilities and fidelities.
