Abstract

We report on the robustness of a detuned mode channel for reading out the relevant s-shell properties of a resonantly excited coupled quantum dot (QD) in a pillar microcavity. The line broadening of the QD s-shell is "monitored" by the mode signal with high conformity to the directly measured QD linewidth. The mode signal also monitors the saturation behavior of a near Fourier transform-limited photon emission from a resonantly excited QD. We also investigate the temperature dependence of the coupling mechanism between an off-resonant QD and a cavity mode under pure resonant excitation of the quantum emitter.
