Electrically injected nanoLED with large spontaneous emission enhancement from an optical antenna

Electrically injected nanoLED with large spontaneous emission enhancement from an optical antenna

We experimentally demonstrate 200x spontaneous emission rate enhancement from an electrically-injected nanoLED coupled to a cavity-backed optical slot antenna. Such a nanoLED device could be used as a fast, efficient, and nanoscale light source for on-chip optical interconnects.
