Abstract

    We discuss the impact of a dielectric nanoparticle on the fluorescence light from an emitter embedded in the particle. Numerical and analytical calculations predict a slower radiative decay compared to a bulk dielectric due to electrostatic screening. We assess the relevance of the nanoparticle shape and size and the position and orientation of the molecule. The numerical results are obtained from a rigorous solution of the Maxwell equations, formulated as boundary integral equations.
