Localized exciton-polariton modes in dye-doped nanospheres: a quantum approach
arXiv:1506.01321 · doi:10.1088/2040-8978/18/1/015001
Abstract
We model a dye-doped polymeric nanosphere as an ensemble of quantum emitters and use it to investigate the localized exciton-polaritons supported by such a nanosphere. By determining the time evolution of the density matrix of the collective system, we explore how an incident laser field may cause transient optical field enhancement close to the surface of such nanoparticles. Our results provide further evidence that excitonic materials can be used to good effect in nanophotonics.
