چکیده
We present a new method of measuring the guided, radiated, and total decay rates in uniform waveguides. It is also shown theoretically that large modifications of the total decay rate can be achieved in realistic erbium-doped fiber amplifiers and erbium-doped waveguide amplifiers with effective mode area radii smaller than approximately 1 microm.

Spontaneous decay rates in one-dimensional waveguides
It is well-known that the spontaneous decay rates of emitting sources such as atoms or quantum wells can be largely modified in optical micro-cavities. − 4 Controlled spontaneous-emission plays a key role in a new generation of micro and nano-optical devices. Highperformance micro-cavity lasers, for instance, have been already experimentally demonstrated. 6 Spontaneous decay rates modifications...
متن کاملQuantization of electromagnetic fields in the presence of a spherical semiconductor quantum dot and spontaneous decay of an excited atom doped in this nanostructure
In this paper we consider electromagnetic field quantization in the presence of a dispersive and absorbing semiconductor quantum dot. By using macroscopic approach and Green's function method, quantization of electromagnetic field is investigated. Interaction of a two-level atom , which is doped in a semiconductor quantum dot, with the quantized field is considered and its spontaneous emission ...
متن کاملMesoscopic entanglement induced by spontaneous emission in solid-state quantum optics.
Implementations of solid-state quantum optics provide us with devices where qubits are placed at fixed positions in photonic or plasmonic one-dimensional waveguides. We show that solely by controlling the position of the qubits and with the help of a coherent driving, collective spontaneous decay may be engineered to yield an entangled mesoscopic steady state. Our scheme relies on the realizati...

متن کاملStatistical measurements of quantum emitters coupled to Anderson-localized modes in disordered photonic-crystal waveguides.
We present a statistical study of the Purcell enhancement of the light emission from quantum dots coupled to Anderson-localized cavities formed in disordered photonic-crystal waveguides. We measure the time-resolved light emission from both single quantum emitters coupled to Anderson-localized cavities and directly from the cavities that are fed by multiple quantum dots. Strongly inhibited and ...
