Abstract:
A nanoparticle-based system for enhancement of emitted light inside a medium. The nanoparticle-based system includes a phosphorescent material which, upon activation, produces the emitted light, and a metallic structure attached to the phosphorescent material. The metallic structure has a surface plasmon resonance which resonates at a frequency which spectrally overlaps with one or more frequencies of the emitted light.
