Fig. 3

A The excitation spectrum of Ce6T under ESC in the Al/Ce6T/Al cavity (red shaded curve) and in the Al/PVA/Ce6T/PVA/Al cavity (brown shaded curve). The bottom two panels show the excitation spectrum of non-cavity Ce6T (blue-shaded curve) compared to its absorption spectrum (blue-dotted curve). The excitation spectra were recorded following the emission at 770 nm. B The emission decay profile of the non-cavity Ce6T (blue spheres) and strongly coupled Ce6T in the Al/Ce6T/Al cavity (red open triangles) and in the Al/PVA/Ce6T/PVA/Al cavity (brown open squares). The top panel represents the emission decay collected at 674 nm (non-cavity) and 690 nm (under ESC). The bottom panel corresponds to the emission decay collected at 740 nm. The inset in the bottom panel is the zoom of the decay profile, showing the presence and absence of rise time in non-cavity and under ESC, respectively.
