Abstract

Utilizing strong light-matter coupling is an elegant and powerful way to modify the energy landscapes of excited states of organic semiconductors. Consequently, the chemical and photophysical properties of these organic semiconductors can be influenced without the need of chemical modification but simply by implementing them in optical microcavities. This has so far mostly been shown in Fabry-Pérot cavities and with organic single crystals or diluted molecules in a host matrix. Here, we demonstrate strong, simultaneous coupling of the two Davydov transitions in polycrystalline pentacene thin films to surface lattice resonances supported by open cavities made of silver nanoparticle arrays. Such thin films are more easily fabricated and, together with the open architecture, more suitable for device applications.
