Exact diagonalization results for a finite system (a multilevel quantum dot interacting with the lowest energy photon mode of a microcavity) are presented in support to this statement.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-10-30T17:26:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "photon emission", "coherent behaviour", "polaritons", "lowest energy photon mode", "exact diagonalization results" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
