Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have investigated ultrafast radiative decay and optical nonlinearity caused by coherent coupling between light and confined exciton (so-called size-resonant enhancement) in organic thin films in comparison with those of inorganic thin films. We have found the acceleration of radiative decay by one or two orders of magnitude (decay time of 250ps or less) of zero-phonon emission line of Frenkel exciton in 100nm-scale thick pure crystalline films of aromatic molecular anthracene. Judging from the high luminescence yield, we have concluded that the acceleration of the luminescence decay is probably caused by the size-resonant enhancement, although any characteristic structure caused by the exciton confinement is not yet found. In inorganic CuCl single-crystalline thin films, we have confirmed the effective enhancement of room-temperature optical nonlinearity of Wannier exciton caused by the size-resonant enhancement.
