Abstract
We demonstrate coupling of lead halide perovskite nanocrystals to a nanophotonic cavity. From
photoluminescence measurements, we observe a factor of 10 enhancement in brightness from the
cavity mode emission. We perform room temperature time-resolved lifetime measurements that
demonstrate an average spontaneous emission rate enhancement of 2.9 for perovskite nanocrystals
within the cavity as compared to those located on the unpatterned surfaces. Our method provides a
way towards realizing efficient light emitters and low-threshold lasers, as well as fast nonlinear
optical devices, using solution processable materials.
