Controlling the electro-optic response of a semiconducting perovskite coupled to a phonon-resonant cavity (2306.05000v1)

Published 8 Jun 2023 in physics.app-ph and cond-mat.mes-hall

Abstract: Optical cavities, resonant with vibrational or electronic transitions of material within the cavity, enable control of light-matter interaction. Previous studies have reported cavity-induced modifications of chemical reactivity, fluorescence, phase behavior, and charge transport. Here, we explore the effect of resonant cavity-phonon coupling on the transient photoconductivity in a hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite. To this end, we measure the ultrafast photoconductivity response of perovskite in a tunable Fabry-Perot terahertz cavity, designed to be transparent for optical excitation. The terahertz-cavity field-phonon interaction causes apparent Rabi splitting between the perovskite phonon mode and the cavity mode. We explore whether the cavity-phonon interaction affects the material electron-phonon interaction by determining the charge carrier mobility through the photoconductivity. Despite the apparent hybridization of cavity and phonon modes, we show that the perovskite properties, in both ground (phonon response) and excited (photoconductive response) states, remain unaffected by the tunable light-matter interaction. Yet the response of the integral perovskite-terahertz optical cavity system depends critically on the interaction strength of the cavity with the phonon: the transient terahertz response to optical excitation can be increased up to 3-fold by tuning the cavity-perovskite interaction strength. These results enable tunable switches and frequency-controlled induced transparency devices.
