Abstract
In this paper, the electromagnetically induced transparency of an asymmetric quantum dot with Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction and under the influence of external electric and magnetic fields is investigated. To study electromagnetically induced transparency, the dependence of absorption coefficient and refractive index of the probe light pulse on the Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction strength, the electric and magnetic fields and dot size are measured and studied. The results show the considerable effects of Spin-Orbit Interaction and other mentioned parameters on the electromagnetically induced transparency of the system. It is possible to control electromagnetically induced transparency of typical systems via Spin-Orbit Interaction along with external fields and dimension.
