Abstract
The field of an electric dipole inside an arbitrary system of parallel slabs is evaluated with a Green’s function approach. Application of boundary conditions yields a matrix formalism that allows compact formulation of the problem. The method is extended to the general case of parallel stratified medialike cavities containing a dipole. Effects on spontaneous-emission rate of dipole emitters are evaluated and discussed for different types of planar microcavities.

Surface enhanced fluorescence

TL;DR: The surface enhanced fluorescence (SEF) technique is based on the design of surfaces in the vicinity of the emitter as mentioned in this paper. But the SEF technique is not suitable for the detection of single-molecular detection.

Net optical gain in a plasmonic waveguide embedded in a fluorescent polymer

TL;DR: In this article, a long-range surface plasmon propagation with net positive gain over macroscopic distances is directly observed, provided by an optically pumped layer of fluorescent conjugated polymer that is adjacent to the metal waveguide surface.

Oriented phosphorescent emitters boost OLED efficiency

TL;DR: In this paper, the orientation distribution of the emissive sites in a phosphorescent organic LED has been measured utilizing two independent optical methods, and the authors find a clearly nonisotropic, predominantly parallel emitter orientation in the well-known triplet emitting guest-host system of Ir(MDQ) 2 (acac) blended in an α-NPD matrix.

Quantum electrodynamics near an interface. II.

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantum-mechanical linear-response formalism is used to calculate the frequency shift and lifetime of an excited atom near an arbitrary flat interface, and the results depend on the frequency-dependent atom and field susceptibilities, and in terms of the appropriate Fresnel reflection coefficients; the contributions from surface excitations are easily identified.
