Molecular Monolayer Strong Coupling in Dielectric Soft Microcavities.


ABSTRACT: We report strong coupling of a monolayer of J-aggregated dye molecules to the whispering gallery modes of a dielectric microsphere at room temperature. We systematically studied the evolution of strong coupling as the number of layers of dye molecules was increased and found the Rabi splitting to rise from 56 meV for a single layer to 94 meV for four layers of dye molecules. We compare our experimental results with two-dimensional (2D) numerical simulations and a simple coupled oscillator model, finding good agreement. We anticipate that these results will act as a stepping stone for integrating molecule-cavity strong coupling in a microfluidic environment since microspheres can be easily trapped and manipulated in such an environment and provide open access cavities.
