Abstract
AbstractWe demonstrate the realization of cavity polariton states in bulk CuCl microcavities. The CuCl microcavities made from a bulk CuCl layer and distributed Bragg reflectors consisting of PbF2 and PbBr2 layers prepared by vacuum deposition. Angle‐resolved reflectance spectra show the strong coupling characteristics of the excitons and photon mode; namely, the energies of reflectance structures exhibit incident‐angle dependence accompanying with an anticrossing behaviour peculiar to the cavity polaritons. From the phenomenological analysis with a 3×3 Hamiltonian of the cavity‐polariton modes originating from the Z3 exciton, Z1,2 exciton, and cavity photon, it has been revealed that the vacuum Rabi splitting energies in the λ‐thick CuCl active layer are 97 meV and 162 meV for the Z3 and Z1,2 excitons, respectively. We also indicate the potential to control the Rabi‐splitting energy by changing the active layer thickness. Furthermore, the spectral profile of reflectance is reasonably explained by calculations based on a theory of non‐local linear optical response. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
