Abstract

Recent results on development and characterization of WGM spherical microcavities integrated with organic dye molecules in a J-aggregate state are presented. The microcavities are studied using micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy, and fluorescence lifetime imaging confocal microscopy. Directional emission of light from the microcavity is also experimentally demonstrated and attributed to the photonic jets generated in the microsphere.
