The enhancement of the power conversion efficiency (PCE), and subsequent reduction of cost, of light emitting diodes (LEDs) is of crucial importance in the current lightening market. For this reason, we propose here a PCE-enhanced LED architecture, based on a partially reflecting metasurface cavity (PRMC) structure. This structure simultaneously enhances the light extraction efficiency (LEE) and the spontaneous emission rate (SER) of the LED by enforcing the emitted light to radiate perpendicularly to the device, so as to suppress wave trapping and enhance field confinement near the emitter, while ensuring cavity resonance matching and maximal constructive field interference. The PRMC structure is designed using a recent surface susceptibility metasurface synthesis technique. A PRMC blue LED design is presented and demonstrated by full-wave simulation to provide LEE and SER enhancements by factors 4.0 and 1.9, respectively, which correspond to PCE enhancement factors of 6.2, 5.2 and 4.5 for IQEs of 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75, respectively, suggesting that the PRMC concept has a promising potential in LED technology.

We report direct evidence of enhanced spontaneous emission in a photonic crystal (PhC) light-emitting diode. The device consists of p-i-n heterojunction embedded in a suspended membrane, comprising a layer of self-assembled quantum dots. Current is i
njected laterally from the periphery to the center of the PhC. A well-isolated emission peak at 1300nm from the PhC cavity mode is observed, and the enhancement of the spontaneous emission rate is clearly evidenced by time-resolved electroluminescence measurements, showing that our diode switches off in a time shorter than the bulk radiative and nonradiative lifetimes
We report optical brain imaging using a semi-transparent organic light-emitting diode (OLED) based on the orange light-emitting polymer (LEP) Livilux PDO-124. The OLED serves as a compact, extended light source which is capable of uniformly illuminat
ing the cortical surface when placed across a burr hole in the skull. Since all layers of the OLED are substantially transparent to photons with energies below the optical gap of the LEP, light emitted or reflected by the cortical surface may be efficiently transmitted through the OLED and into the objective lens of a low magnification microscope (macroscope). The OLED may be placed close to the cortical surface, providing efficient coupling of incident light into the brain cavity; furthermore, the macroscope may be placed close to the upper surface of the OLED, enabling efficient collection of reflected/emitted light from the cortical surface. Hence the use of a semi-transparent OLED simplifies the optical setup, while at the same time maintaining high sensitivity. The OLED is applied here to one of the most demanding forms of optical brain imaging, namely extrinsic optical imaging involving a voltage sensitive dye (VSD). Specifically, we carry out functional imaging of the primary visual cortex (V1) of a rat, using the voltage sensitive dye RH-1691 as a reporter. Imaging through the OLED light-source, we are able to resolve small (~ 0.1 %) changes in the fluorescence intensity of the dye due to changes in the neuronal membrane potential following a visual stimulus. Results are obtained on a single trial basis -- i.e. without averaging over multiple measurements -- with a time-resolution of ten milliseconds.
A two-dimensional (2D) ZnS photonic crystal was deposited on the surface of a one-dimensional (1D) III-nitride micro cavity light-emitting diode (LED), to intermix the light extraction features of both structures (1D+2D). The deposition of an ideal m
icro-cavity optical thickness of lambda/2 is impractical for III-nitride LEDs, and in realistic multi-mode devices a large fraction of the light is lost to internal refraction as guided light. Therefore, a 2D photonic crystal on the surface of the LED was used to diffract and thus redirect this guided light out of the semiconductor over several hundred microns. Additionally, the employment of a post-epitaxy ZnS 2D photonic crystal avoided the typical etching into the GaN:Mg contact layer, a procedure which can cause damage to the near surface.
We present results on electrically driven nanobeam photonic crystal cavities formed out of a lateral p-i-n junction in gallium arsenide. Despite their small conducting dimensions, nanobeams have robust electrical properties with high current densitie
s possible at low drive powers. Much like their two-dimensional counterparts, the nanobeam cavities exhibit bright electroluminescence at room temperature from embedded 1,250 nm InAs quantum dots. A small room temperature differential gain is observed in the cavities with minor beam self-heating suggesting that lasing is possible. These results open the door for efficient electrical control of active nanobeam cavities for diverse nanophotonic applications.
The Rashba effect, i.e., the splitting of electronic spin-polarized bands in the momentum space of a crystal with broken inversion symmetry, has enabled the realization of spin-orbitronic devices, in which spins are manipulated by spin-orbit coupling
. In optics, where the helicity of light polarization represents the spin degree of freedom for spin-momentum coupling, the optical Rashba effect is manifested by the splitting of optical states with opposite chirality in the momentum space. Previous realizations of the optical Rashba effect relied on passive devices determining either the propagation direction of surface plasmons or circularly polarized light into nanostructures, or the directional emission of polarized luminescence from metamaterials hybridized with light-emitting media. Here we demonstrate an active device underpinned by the optical Rashba effect, in which a monolithic halide perovskite metasurface emits highly directional chiral photoluminescence. An all-dielectric metasurface design with broken in-plane inversion symmetry is directly embossed into the high refractive index, light-emitting perovskite film, yielding a degree of circular polarization of photoluminescence of 40% at room temperature - more than one order of magnitude greater than in state of art chiral perovskites.
