Abstract

Anti-Stokes photoluminescence from colloidal CdSeS/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) is observed. The QDs were inserted into the core of wider-bandgap SiO2/Si3N4/SiO2 structure by thin film deposition and confirmed as promising nanoemitters for laser cooling due to efficient anti-Stokes emission. The nanoemitters were optically pumped by semiconductor lasers coupled to the waveguides using free-space optics. A direct evidence of local optical cooling in the waveguide structure has been demonstrated with a luminescence thermometry based on the detection of photoluminescence signal phase change versus power of the pumping laser, using a lock-in amplifier.
