Strong Exciton–Photon Coupling in Hybrid Inorganic–Organic Perovskite Micro/Nanowires

Abstract

Abstract Recently, inorganic–organic perovskite nanowires with strong photon confinement and isotropy have attracted considerable attention for advanced applications in optoelectronic devices from lasers and photodetectors to transistors. Moreover, their high exciton oscillation strength and binding energy make them very promising for polariton devices in the strong light–matter interaction region. This study presents the strong exciton–photon coupling in hybrid inorganic–organic CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 micro/nanowire cavities at room temperature. Clear anticrossing feature is observed by using remote excitation photoluminescence emission spectroscopy with vacuum Rabi splitting energy up to 390 meV. The observed vacuum Rabi splitting energy of up to ≈390 meV (0.32 × 3.66 µm 2 ) is attributed to large oscillator strength and photon confinement in reduced dimension of the micro/nanowire based Fabry–Pérot cavities. With increasing pump fluence, the exciton–photon coupling is weakened because of carrier screening effect, which leads to the occurrence of photonic lasing instead of polariton lasing. The demonstrated strong exciton–photon coupling in perovskite micro/nanowire cavities is significant for the development of high performance polariton‐based incoherent and coherent light sources, nonlinear optics, and slow light applications.
