Abstract
A revisited realization of the Young’s double slit experiment is introduced to directly probe the photonic. mode symmetry by photoluminescence experiments. We experimentally measure the far field angular. emission pattern of quantum dots embedded in photonic molecules. The experimental data well agree with. predictions from Young’s interference and numerical simulations. Moreover, the vectorial nature of. photonic eigenmodes results in a rather complicated parity property for different polarizations, a feature. which has no counterpart in quantum mechanics.File in questo prodotto:
