Superradiance in molecular aggregates
Abstract
Using a reduced equation of motion for the density matrix which accounts for spontaneous emission and superradiance, we analyze the fluorescence and transient grating (TG) decays from a dilute, optically thin distribution of molecular aggregates. We find that the fluorescence is a limited form of superradiance, where cooperativity is restricted to the number N of two level systems which make up the aggregate. The dependence of the linear aggregate decay rate on the amount of inhomogeneous broadening, which is randomly distributed according to Gaussian line shape of width (1/e)2σ, is calculated. It is shown that σ must be comparable in magnitude to the nearest neighbor dipole–dipole coupling V and not the superradiant decay rate, in order to quench the superradiance.

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.
