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…
Broadband sensitive pump-probe setup for ultrafast optical switching of photonic nanostructures and semiconductors
Tijmen G. Euser, Philip J. Harding, Willem L. Vos
We describe an ultrafast time resolved pump-probe spectroscopy setup aimed at studying the switching of nanophotonic structures. Both fs pump and probe pulses can be independently…
Accurate calculation of the local density of optical states in inverse-opal photonic crystals
Ivan S. Nikolaev, Willem L. Vos, A. Femius Koenderink
We have investigated the local density of optical states (LDOS) in titania and silicon inverse opals -- three-dimensional photonic crystals that have been realized experimentally.…
Orientation-dependent spontaneous emission rates of a two-level quantum emitter in any nanophotonic environment
Willem L. Vos, A. Femius Koenderink, Ivan S. Nikolaev
We study theoretically the rate of spontaneous emission of a two-level quantum emitter embedded in realistic systems: near a mirror, near a plasmonic sphere, or in a 3D photonic ba…
The role of fabrication deviations on the photonic band gap of 3D inverse woodpile nanostructures
Leon A. Woldering, Allard P. Mosk, R. Willem Tjerkstra +1
In this report the effects of unintended deviations from ideal inverse woodpile photonic crystals on the band gap are discussed. These deviations occur during the nanofabrication o…
Time-resolved resonance and linewidth of an ultrafast switched GaAs/AlAs microcavity
Philip J. Harding, Allard P. Mosk, Alex Hartsuiker +3
We explore a planar GaAs/AlAs photonic microcavity using pump-probe spectroscopy. Free carriers are excited in the GaAs with short pump pulses. The time-resolved reflectivity is sp…
