Dissipation and detection of polaritons in ultrastrong coupling regime    [PDF]

Motoaki Bamba, Tetsuo Ogawa
We have investigated theoretically a dissipative polariton system in the ultrastrong light-matter coupling regime without using the rotating-wave approximation on system-reservoir coupling. Photons in a cavity and excitations in matter respectively couple two large ensembles of harmonic oscillators (photonic and excitonic reservoirs). Inheriting the quantum statistics of polaritons in the ultrastrong coupling regime, in the ground state of the whole system, the two reservoirs are not in the vacuum states but they are squeezed and correlated. We suppose this non-vacuum reservoir state in the master equation and in the input-output formalism with Langevin equations. Both two approaches consistently guarantee the decay of polariton system to its ground state, and no photon detection is also obtained when the polariton system is in the ground state.
