Abstract:
A method is developed for analyzing spontaneous-emission modification in cylindrically symmetric structures. A matrix method is developed for cylindrical structures. General expressions for the radiative-recombination rate are derived for an emitter placed at any point on the structure. Quantitative indicators for estimating radiative-recombination enhancement and suppression are determined; they can be considered as modal Purcell factors. An expression for the total Purcell factor is derived for an emission direction perpendicular to the symmetry axes of the medium; as well as an expression for the integral (total) Purcell factor for the emitter at the symmetry axis.
Keywords:
