  • Abstract
    We coherently probe a quantum dot that is strongly coupled to a photonic crystal nano-cavity by scattering of a resonant laser beam. The coupled systempsilas response is highly nonlinear as the quantum dot saturation with nearly one photon per cavity lifetime. This coherent probing method has applications for classical and quantum information processing.
