Dipole Spontaneous Emission Near Planar Anisotropic Layers with Hyperbolic Metamaterial Properties

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Analytical expressions were obtained for the rates of spontaneous emission of an atom (molecule) located near planar anisotropic layers with hyperbolic metamaterial properties. The distribution of the electric field excited by a dipole source in an anisotropic layer followed a complicated pattern. It was shown that the emission rate into the half-space behind the layers could exceed substantially the emission rate into the half-space in front of the layers.
