Abstract
Dielectric nanostructures have demonstrated optical antenna effects due to Mie resonances. Previous work has exhibited enhancements in absorption, emission rates and directionality with practical limitations. In this paper, we present a Si mix antenna array to achieve a trifecta enhancement of similar to 1200-fold with a Purcell factor of similar to 47. The antenna design incorporates similar to 10 nm gaps, within which fluorescent molecules strongly absorb the pump laser energy through a resonant mode. In the emission process, the antenna array increases the radiative decay rates of the fluorescence molecules via a Purcell effect and provides directional emission through a separate mode. This work could lead to novel CMOS-compatible platforms to enhance fluorescence for biological and chemical applications.
