Splitting in lateral shift induced by strong coupling in Kretschmann configuration involving molecular J-aggregates

摘要

Molecular J-aggregates are widely used as emitters to achieve the quantum effects, such as the strong coupling phenomenon. We investigate the lateral shift splitting/Goos-Hanchen (GH) shift splitting induced by strong coupling in Kretschmann configuration involving molecular J-aggregates by using classical methods. The optical response of molecular J-aggregates is modeled by a single Lorentzian oscillator, and Fresnel equations and the stationary phase method are employed to solve our proposed structure. Our results show that the lateral shift versus the incident wavelength shows Rabi splitting-like line shape and the reflection spectrum exhibits the strong coupling phenomenon. Based on the results of the previous experiment work, we well explain the relation between Rabi splitting and the thickness of the metal film and provide a new method to choose the parameters of the structure for experiment.
