Funded Activity Summary

Efficient, directional and spin-controlled nanoscale light sources. This project aims to develop a new class of functional light sources by harnessing the nanoscale interactions between emitters and metallic or dielectric nanoparticles. Understanding of these interactions would lead to efficient energy extraction from emitters to far-field radiation; in addition, new functionalities including highly directional emission, circularly polarised emission, and super-radiance would be realised. The outcomes of this project are expected to enable unprecedented control of light emission beyond current capabilities and will revolutionise lighting and display technologies. Furthermore the project aims to open new opportunities for the development of bright bio-medical fluorescent markers as well as deterministic sources of quantum light.
