Whispering gallery modes in photoluminescence and Raman spectra of a spherical microcavity with CdTe quantum dots: anti-Stokes emission and interference effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have studied the photoluminescence and Raman spectra of a system consisting of a polystyrene latex microsphere coated by CdTe colloidal quantum dots. The cavity-induced enhancement of the Raman scattering allows the observation of Raman spectra from only a monolayer of CdTe quantum dots. Periodic structure with very narrow peaks in the photoluminescence spectra of a single microsphere was detected both in the Stokes and anti-Stokes spectral regions, arising from the coupling between the emission of quantum dots and spherical cavity modes.

Enhanced coupling of electronic and photonic states in a microcavity- quantum dot system
1. ABSTRACT Spherical microcavities consisting of a dielectric material show unique optical characteristics as resonators in combination with semiconductor nanoparticles. A high quality factor results in a very narrow bandwidth of the resonant modes (whispering-gallery modes) inside the microcavity. The polystyrene microspheres are coated with one monolayer of CdTe nanocrystals which offer a hi...
متن کاملRadiation-pressure-induced mode splitting in a spherical microcavity with an elastic shell.
In this work, we present a novel method to reveal azimuthal whispering gallery modes (WGMs) in a spherical microcavity coated with a nano-meter thick polyelectrolyte shell and one monolayer of CdTe semiconductor quantum dots. The new approach in this experiment is based on the deformation of the spherical shape in a non-contact way using the radiation pressure from a laser beam, which causes th...
متن کاملLarge spontaneous emission enhancement in InAs quantum dots coupled to microdisk whispering gallery modes
Measuring the enhancement of spontaneous emission decay rates of quantum dot emission coupled to microcavity modes is typically hampered by variable coupling of the quantum dot emission. This is particularly evident in the microdisk cavity since the whispering gallery modes are localized near the disk edge, while quantum dot emitters are typically uniformily distributed throughout the disk. The...

In this paper, we investigate variation of the wavelength, intensity and polarization of the self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots emission by microphotoluminescence spectroscopy at the liquid helium temperature. The microcavity wafer sample is grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and chemically etched into the micropillar structure (with elliptical cross section - long and short axis 2µm×1.5µ...
