Recent Developments

A lifetimes technique that is readily applicable to neutral and singly ionised atoms of a wide range of elements, including the highly refractory elements, is reviewed. With this technique an atomic vapour of the element under study is generated by cathodic sputtering in a low pressure rare-gas discharge and fluorescence decay signals emitted by the vapour following pulsed laser excitation are recorded directly in a fast transient digitiser. Theoretical expressions are presented for the form of the time-resolved fluor~scence signal appropriate to the collisional environment of a rare-gas sputtering discharge. A summary is given of the atomic systems studied to date using this technique, and some new results for Sm and Ba are compared with recently reported results for these elements.

In this paper, we studied the laser and optical properties of conjugated oligomer (CO) 1,4-bis(9-ethyl-3-carbazo-vinylene)-9,9-dihexyl-fluorene (BECV-DHF) thin films, which were cast onto a quartz substrate using a spin coating technique. BECV-DHF was dissolved in chloroform at different concentrations to produce thin films with various thicknesses. The obtained results from the absorption spectrum revealed one sharp peak at 403 nm and two broads at 375 and 428 nm. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra were recorded for different thin films made from different concentrations of the oligomer solution. The threshold, laser-induced fluorescence (LIF), and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) properties of the CO BECV-DHF thin films were studied in detail. The ASE spectrum was achieved at approximately 482.5 nm at a suitable concentration and sufficient pump energy. The time-resolved spectroscopy of the BECV-DHF films was demonstrated at different pump energies.

This chapter gives an introduction to optomechanics with ultracold atoms. The opening half deals with optomechanical atom–light interactions. Section 9.2 introduces atom trapping. Section 9.3 discusses the properties of trapped atoms as mechanical oscillators. Section 9.4 describes optomechanical interactions, treating the atoms as polarizable particles, a model used in section 9.5 to derive optomechanical coupling of atoms and a cavity field and briefly review cavity optomechanics experiments with atoms in the quantum regime. The second half deals with hybrid mechanical-atomic systems. We start with an overview of different coupling mechanisms, then focus on light-mediated interactions and derive the coupling of a membrane to an ensemble of laser-cooled atoms. Section 9.8 reviews experiments on sympathetic cooling of a membrane with cold atoms, with perspectives for mechanical quantum control discussed in section 9.9. Section 9.10 introduces the possibilities that arise if the mechanical oscillator is coupled to the atomic internal state.

ABSTRACTWe report the fabrication of a one dimensional microcavity structure embedded with colloidal CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots using solution processing. The microcavity structures were fabricated by spin coating alternating layers of polymers of different refractive indices (poly-vinylcarbazole, and poly-acrylic acid) to form the distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs). Greater than 90% reflectivity was obtained using ten periods of the structure. The one dimensional microcavity was formed by sandwiching a λ/n thick defect layer between two such DBRs. The microcavity demonstrated directionality in emission and well behaved dispersion characteristics. Room temperature time-resolved photoluminescence measurements carried out on this structure showed six fold enhancement of spontaneous emission rate. The photoluminescence decay time of the quantum dots was found to be ∼ 1 ns while for the quantum dots embedded in the microcavity it was ∼150 ps.
