Statistical properties of spontaneous emission from atoms near a rough surface
Abstract
We study the lifetime of the excited state of an atom or molecule near a plane surface with a given random
surface roughness. In particular, we discuss the impact of the scattering of surface modes within the rough surface.
Our study is completed by considering the lateral correlation length of the decay rate and the variance discussing
its relation to the C0 correlation.
