Active Modulation of Er3+ Emission Lifetime by VO2 Phase‐Change Thin Films

The active modulation of optical response of quantum emitters at the nanoscale is of paramount importance to realize tunable light sources for nanophotonic devices. Herein, a thin film of phase‐change material (VO2) is coupled to a 20 nm‐thick silica layer embedding Er3+ ions, and it is demonstrated...
