An emitter in a magnetic multilayer (50/70/90 nm; μ = 1.3, 1, 1.7 in μ = 1.1), 614 nm: far-field power against the radiative rate Two routes to the same number for a radial dipole: the radiative rate from the decay-rate sums, and the power of the far field the dipole radiates through every layer. The gaps in r are the gold shell, where an emitter is not placed.
