Narrow Linewidth Spontaneous and Lasing Emissions from Open‐Access Microcavity‐Embedded Perovskite Quantum Dots
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Achieving efficient optical coupling between the emission from perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) and photonic integrated elements requires ultranarrow linewidths and highly directional emission. These are challenging goals at room temperature due to the broad and isotropic nature of perovskite emission. Here, we demonstrate ultranarrow‐linewidth emission from CsPbBr 3 PQDs at room temperature, in both spontaneous and stimulated regimes, by coupling to state‐of‐the‐art open‐access curved dielectric cavities under continuous wave excitation. The emission is confined to a single transverse electromagnetic mode of the cavity, achieving a remarkably narrow linewidth of 0.2 nm, ≈100× narrower than free‐space emission in both the emission regime. Single‐mode lasing from a small number of PQDs is observed, yielding a quality factor of ≈2590, among the highest reported for single‐mode lasing. The open‐access design enables precise tuning of cavity length and selective coupling of emitters in their native state, overcoming the limitations associated with closed and fixed‐length vertical‐cavity surface emitting laser geometries. The geometry's low divergence and tunability provide an efficient route for integrating perovskite emitters with on‐chip photonic circuits, advancing their use in quantum and optoelectronic technologies.
