Abstract
The band-edge emission lifetime in a single ZnO tetrapod is studied by using the time-resolved confocal micro-photoluminescence (TR-μPL) spectroscopic technique at room temperature. By performing μPL and TR-μPL mapping along the tapered arm of tetrapod, we observe whispering gallery mode (WGM) polaritons and find that the predominant radiative lifetime of exciton polaritons decreases linearly with increasing the surface-to-volume ratio of the sample. This behavior is ascribed to the surface electric field induced enhancement of the radiative decay rate of the exciton-like polaritons coupling with LO phonons.
