Abstract
Left-handedness with three zero-absorption windows is achieved in a triple-quantum dot (TQD) system. With the typical parameters of a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure, the simultaneous negative relative electric permittivity and magnetic permeability are obtained by the adjustable incoherent pumping field and two inter-dot tunnelings. What's more, three zero-absorption windows in the left-handedness frequency bands are observed in the TQD system. The left-handedness with zero-absorption in solid state heterostructure may solve not only the challenge in the photonic resonant scheme for left-handed materials (LHMs) but also the application limitation of the negative refractive materials with large amount of absorption.
