Non-exponential spontaneous emission dynamics for emitters in a time-dependent optical cavity
Henri Thyrrestrup, Alex Hartsuiker, Jean-Michel Gérard +1
We have theoretically studied the effect of deterministic temporal control of spontaneous emission in a dynamic optical microcavity. We propose a new paradigm in light emission: we…
Observation of sub-Bragg diffraction of waves in crystals
Simon R. Huisman, Rajesh V. Nair, Alex Hartsuiker +3
We investigate the diffraction conditions and associated formation of stopgaps for waves in crystals with different Bravais lattices. We identify a prominent stopgap in high-symmet…
Ultimate fast optical switching of a planar microcavity in the telecom wavelength range
Georgios Ctistis, Emre Yüce, Alex Hartsuiker +4
We have studied a GaAs-AlAs planar microcavity with a resonance near 1300 nm in the telecom range by ultrafast pump-probe reflectivity. By the judicious choice of pump frequency, w…
Optical characterization and selective addressing of the resonant modes of a micropillar cavity with a white light beam
Georgios Ctistis, Alex Hartsuiker, Edwin van der Pol +3
We have performed white-light reflectivity measurements on GaAs/AlAs micropillar cavities with diameters ranging from 1 μm up to 20 μm. We are able to resolve the spatial field dis…
Observation of a stronger-than-adiabatic change of light trapped in an ultrafast switched GaAs-AlAs microcavity
Philip J. Harding, Huib J. Bakker, Alex Hartsuiker +4
We study the time-resolved reflectivity spectrum of a switched planar GaAs-AlAs microcavity. Between 5 and 40 ps after the switching (pump) pulse we observe a strong excess probe r…
Measuring the true quality factor of an ultrafast photonic microcavity: homogeneous versus inhomogeneous broadening
Alex Hartsuiker, Allard P. Mosk, Julien Claudon +2
We have measured time-resolved the photon storage time and the quality factor of an ultrafast photonic cavity using an autocorrelator. The cavity consists of a -thick GaAs layer…
