Fluorescence diffraction assisted by Bloch surface waves on a one-dimensional photonic crystal

The use of linear and circular subwavelength gratings for improving the fluorescence extraction from organic dyes spotted on the surface of a one-dimensional photonic crystal is demonstrated. The one-dimensional photonic crystal hosting the gratings allows Bloch surface waves (BSWs) to be coupled in...
