Fig. 3. PL spectral splitting compared with the RL spectra.

Strong coupling between the CQDs and 4-μm SiO2/Si based on a characterization of the spectral image. (A) PL spectral image. (B) RL spectral image of 4-μm SiO2/Si. Extracted PL spectra compared with the RL spectra for different angles: (C) 0° and (D) 8.3°. (E) Peak energies as function of collection angle. (F) Angular dispersion of the coupled exciton transition energies in the F-P cavity formed by SiO2/Si. The horizontal dotted line at 1.893 eV is the CQD exciton transition energy in a solvent. The scattered symbols show the experimental results. The gray line shows the angular dispersion of the photon mode for the F-P cavity without CQDs. The solid line is a fit to the data using the strong coupling formula.
