Comments on the classical theory of energy transfer
Abstract
Energy transfer from an emitting molecule to an absorbing half−space is considered from the viewpoint of electromagnetic theory. The lifetime of a dipole emitter in the presence of a mirror is determined through a calculation of the complex Poynting vector in the dielectric surrounding the dipole. This method has the advantage over previous approaches to this problem in that the radiative and nonradiative components of the lifetime expression may be rigorously separated. The influence on emitter lifetime of a mirror of finite thickness is also described. A simple expression is derived describing the energy transfer rate in these layered systems. It is shown that nonradiative energy transfer results from coupling of the near field of the dipole to the surface plasmon modes in the metallic absorber. The Förster energy transfer rate law is discussed in the context of the present theory.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
