Light Conversion Efficiency of Emitters on Top of Plasmonic and Dielectric Arrays of Nanoparticles

Together with our collaborators from Kyoto University, we are proud to contribute to the special issue in ECS Journal of Solid State Science and Technology in the honor of Prof. Isamu Akasaki. In this manuscript we investigate the optical absorption of emitter layers deposited on diffractive arrays of silver and titanium dioxide nanoparticle using an integrating sphere. The results show that absorption at the excitation wavelengths of the emitter has a critical impact on the conversion efficiency, while the absorption at luminescence wavelengths does not modify significantly the total radiation intensity.
