| dc.description | If the modal density available to an excited atom is varied on the time scale of its lifetime, then we can expect the natural process of
spontaneous emission (SE) to become dynamically manipulable. We consider various experimental possibilities and focus on an atom
embedded in a photonic crystal designed to have a band edge in the vicinity of the frequency of the emitted light. Specifically, we calculate
the rate of SE by erbium ions (radiating at the wavelength 1.54 lm) implanted in a one-dimensional silicon/silica photonic crystal.
The semiconductor layers are assumed to be strongly doped; by tuning the impurity density the free carrier concentration changes and
the photonic bands shift. As a result, the SE rate exhibits significant dependency on the level of charge injection. | |
