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…
Size-Dependence of the Wavefunction of Self-Assembled Quantum Dots
J. Johansen, S. Stobbe, I. S. Nikolaev +5
The radiative and non-radiative decay rates of InAs quantum dots are measured by controlling the local density of optical states near an interface. From time-resolved measurements…
Statistical analysis of time-resolved emission from ensembles of semiconductor quantum dots: interpretation of exponential decay models
A. F. van Driel, I. S. Nikolaev, P. Vergeer +3
We present a statistical analysis of time-resolved spontaneous emission decay curves from ensembles of emitters, such as semiconductor quantum dots, with the aim to interpret ubiqu…
Strongly nonexponential time-resolved fluorescence of quantum-dot ensembles in three-dimensional photonic crystals
Ivan S. Nikolaev, Peter Lodahl, A. Floris van Driel +2
We observe experimentally that ensembles of quantum dots in three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals reveal strongly nonexponential time-resolved emission. These complex emission d…
Quantitative analysis of directional spontaneous emission spectra from light sources in photonic crystals
Ivan S. Nikolaev, Peter Lodahl, Willem L. Vos
We have performed angle-resolved measurements of spontaneous-emission spectra from laser dyes and quantum dots in opal and inverse opal photonic crystals. Pronounced directional de…
