Cavity-Enhanced Fluorescence Decay-Rates from Microdroplets
We show that enhanced fluorescence decay rates in microdroplets due to weak coupling to Mie resonances should not follow an inverse radius dependence, 1/a, as has been assumed in several publications, but should contain both in 1/a and (1/a)(2) components, The correspondence with experiment is very good.
