Waveguide coupled cavity-enhanced light emission from individual carbon nanotubes

Waveguide coupled cavity-enhanced light emission from individual carbon nanotubes

We demonstrate an individual single-walled carbon nanotube light emitter integrated onto a microcavity and a waveguide operating in the telecom wavelength regime. Light emission from the carbon nanotube is enhanced at the cavity resonance and is efficiently extracted from the waveguide facet. We hav...
