Abstract

In article number 1701777, David Coles, David G. Lidzey, and co-workers place living photosynthetic bacteria into a photonic microcavity. The system is shown to enter a strong-coupling regime, whereby the cavity modifies the energy of the bacterial light harvesting system. The energy of light harvesting antennae can be tuned by changing the length of the optical cavity, while the bacteria remain alive.
