Radiative Decay Engineering by Triaxial Nanoellipsoids

preprint2004arXivOpen access

Abstract

Radiative decay rates of an atom placed near triaxial nanoellipsoid are investigated in long wavelength approximation. Analytical results are obtained in general case. It is shown that triaxial ellipsoid can be used for efficient control of decay rate of an atom, molecule or quantum dot. For example decay rate near silver ellipsoid can be enhanced by 5 orders of magnitude. It is also shown, that triaxial nanoellipsoid can be used for simultaneous efficient control of absorption and emission rates of fluorophores.
