Direct Observation of Non-Markovian Radiation Dynamics in 3D Bulk Photonic Crystals
Open accessAbstract
Since the very first proposition of photonic crystals, their influence on the dynamics of spontaneous emission has been of great interest. The radiation dynamics is described by an integration kernel which--in a spectral representation--comprises two equally important contributions: the Lamb shift and the radiative contribution to the linewidth. The latter is connected to the density of states via Fermi's golden rule. To our knowledge, we present the first spatially resolved measurement of the complete radiation dynamics in a photonic crystal and of its local density of states over a wide spectral range. To this end we study a single magnetic dipole situated in a photonic crystal with a band gap at microwave frequencies and find non-Markovian behavior in excellent agreement with ab initio calculations.

For the PCC-N-V system, the optical transition dipole moment d∼4×10^-30 C·m and typical transition frequency ω0∼2.9 PHz lead to β∼1 GHz.
“For the relevant experimental parameters, the optical transition dipole moment and the typical transition frequency of the N-V center are observed to be d ∼ 4 × 10 -30 C · m [31, 32] and ω 0 ∼ 2 . 9PHz [33], which lead to β ∼ 1GHz .”

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.
