Dielectric metasurface for emission control of magnetic dipole in the near-IR wavelength range

Abstract

Abstract Developing active dielectric systems is in high demand due to growing the internet of things. Such systems can control the optical properties of nanoemitters which leads to an increase in the performance of the telecommunication networks. Here we numerically investigate metasurface consists of all-dielectric erbium-doped silicon nanocylinders. We demonstrate that such a structure can effectively control and enhance 320-folds spontaneous emission in the near-IR wavelength range. The results of this paper can be used for creating new telecommunication systems.
