Résumé
The near-field interaction between quantum emitters, governed by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), plays a pivotal role in nanoscale energy transfer mechanisms. However, FRET measurements in the optical regime are challenging as they require nanoscale control of the position and orientation of the emitters. To overcome these challenges, microwave measurements were proposed for enhanced spatial resolution and precise orientation control. However, unlike in optical systems for which the dipole can be taken to be infinitesimal in size, the finite size of microwave antennas can affect energy transfer measurements, especially at short distances. This highlights the necessity to consider the finite antenna length to obtain accurate results. In this study, we advance the understanding of dipole-dipole energy transfer in the microwave regime by developing an analytical model that explicitly considers finite antennas. Unlike previous works, our model calculates the mutual impedance of finite-length thin-wire dipole antennas without assuming a uniform current distribution. We validate our analytical model through experiments investigating energy transfer between antennas placed adjacent to a perfect electric conductor mirror. This allows us to provide clear guidelines for designing microwave experiments, distinguishing conditions where finite-size effects can be neglected and where they must be taken into account. Our study not only contributes to the fundamental physics of energy transfer but also opens avenues for microwave antenna impedance-based measurements to complement optical FRET experiments and quantitatively explore dipole-dipole energy transfer in a wider range of conditions.
