Purcell factor

Purcell factor

The enhanced radiative rate of an emitter within a microcavity relative to its value in free-space. For maximal coupling (on-resonance and with the emitter positioned at a field maximum):


F_{P}=frac{3}{4pi^2}left(frac{lambda_{c{n} ight)^3left(frac{Q}{V} ight)

where (lambda_{c}/n) is the wavelength within the material, and Q and V are the Quality Factor and mode volume (in cubic-wavelengths) of the cavity, respectively.
