The dynamic evolution of a multi-level atom in the three-dimensional photonic crystal under an applied magnetic field is investigated.By combining the Zeeman effect with the photonic band gap effect,the dynamic quantum superposition states and steady quantum coherent trapping states of the atom can be flexibly controlled.This paves the way for coherent manipulation of quantum states in the solid-state system,which has important applications in quantum information processing.
The effect of silver nanostructures prepared by nanosphere lithography on the photoluminescence（PL） properties of blue-emitting In Ga N/Ga N quantum wells（QWs） is studied. Arrays of silver nanoparticles are fabricated to yield a collective surface plasmonic resonance（SPR） near to the QWs emission wavelength. A large enhancement in peak PL intensity is observed, when the induced SPR wavelength of the nanoparticles on the QWs sample matches the QWs emission wavelength. The study proves that the SPRs could enhance the light emission efficiency of semiconductor material.
We demonstrate the fabrication of hexagonal nano-pillar arrays at the surface of GaN-based light-emitting diodes （LEDs） by nanosphere lithography. By varying the oxygen plasma etching time, we could tune the size and shape of the pillar. The nano-pillar has a truncated cone shape. The nano-pillar array serves as a gradual effective refractive index matcher, which reduces the reflection and increases light cone. It is found that the patterned surface absorbs more pumping light. To compare extraction efficiencies of LEDs, it is necessary to normalize the photoluminescence power spectrum with total absorption rate under fixed pumping power, then we could obtain the correct enhancement factor of the photoluminescence extraction efficiency and optimized structure. The highest enhancement factor of the extraction efficiency is 10.6.
