This study introduces novel antenna electrodes that act as both electrical contacts and optical antennas. This design enables precise control over electroluminescence from quantum emitters in integrated devices.

Area of Science:

  • Nanophotonics and Quantum Optics
  • Optoelectronics and Device Engineering

Background:

  • Optical antennas modify quantum emitter emission via the Purcell effect, enhancing photoluminescence properties.
  • Previous nanometallic antennas required precise emitter placement and efficient electrical excitation, limiting device integration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a design methodology for antenna electrodes enabling simultaneous current injection and optical manipulation of electroluminescence.
  • To demonstrate effective control over electroluminescence by optimizing carrier confinement and optical coupling.

Main Methods:

  • Designing antenna electrodes for dual functionality: electrical current injection and optical antenna.
  • Confining electrically excited carriers to the antenna electrode vicinity.
  • Maximizing optical coupling of emission to a single antenna mode.
