Beschreibung:
  • A hybrid inorganic/organic microcavity system is presented in which an AlInP-based rolled-up microtube resonator is combined with a thin film of naphthyl end-capped bithiophene molecules. The film is laterally structured into stripes on top of the AlInP layer system before the roll-up process. During the process, the strained bilayer together with the organic molecular stripes rolls up, and a hybrid microtube is formed. The stripes act as visible-light emitters inside the otherwise passive microtube. Furthermore, they induce a light confinement in the axial direction of the microtube, additional to the radial and azimuthal confinement that is intrinsic to a microtube. As the organic material defines the cavity and represents the emitter at the same time, an efficient light coupling into the three-dimensionally confined optical modes of the microtube resonator is ensured. The hybrid microtubes open up the opportunity for novel experiments on the light-molecule interaction as well as their application in optical components.
