Abstract
- To further enhance the color conversion from a quantum-well (QW) structure into a color-converting colloidal quantum dot (QD) through Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), we designed and implemented a device structure with QDs inserted into a GaN nano-porous structure near the QWs to gain the advantageous nanoscale-cavity effect. Additionally, surface Ag nanoparticles were deposited for inducing surface plasmon (SP) coupling with the QW structure. Based on the measurements of time-resolved and continuous-wave photoluminescence spectroscopies, the FRET efficiency from QW into QD is enhanced through the SP coupling. In particular, performance in the polarization perpendicular to the essentially extended direction of the fabricated pores in the nano-porous structure is more strongly enhanced when compared with the other linear polarization. A numerical simulation study was undertaken, and showed consistent results with the experimental observations.
