  • Abstract
    We demonstrate that fast tunable optical switches and tunable slow-light devices can be designed as optical cavities entangled with quantum dots. We derive the analytical conditions for switching and tuning the filter transmittance, considering both dipole-induced transparency and electromagnetic-induced transparency effects.
