dc.description.abstractIn this paper, we perform surface plasmon-coupled emission studies on Rhodamine 6G molecules embedded in a corrugated structure of a thin film composed of fluorinated silica particles, and a binding medium. Our results show enhancements of photoluminescence due to surface corrugation. By varying the size of the fluorinated silica nanoparticles we were able to control the surface correlation length scale of the corrugated surface structure. It was found that the coupling efficiency of the directional light emission is strongly correlated to the surface morphology, particularly the surface correlation length, of the corrugated dielectric structure. This substantial enhancement of signal could potentially be utilized in Organic Light Emitting Diode devices to enhance the light emission and transmission through a thin silver layer which can also serve as the cathode in Top-Emitting Organic Light Emitting Diodes.
