An exciton in a single quantum dot is an attractive implementation of a qubit, since it can be Rabi-flopped or coherently manipulated with pulsed laser fields. Robust methods of preparation have been demonstrated by the application of polarization tailored pulses [1] or chirped laser pulses, resulting in rapid adiabatic passage (RAP) [2,3]. Here we use unchirped laser pulses and an ultrafast transient Stark shift of the exciton energy to prepare an inversion via RAP. We use self-assembled InGaAs QDs embedded in a low capacitance Schottky-photodiode. An ultrafast BiCMOS chip that is closely connected to the photodiode generates transient Stark shifts as fast as 3.6 µeV/ps. It operates at low temperature and is synchronized to the laser excitation. By detecting the occupancy of the QD via photocurrent detection, we are able to observe the transition from the unchirped Rabi scenario to a RAP when the electric chirp is applied.
