Abstract
As is now well known, the spontaneous emission lifetime of an excited atom can be altered if the atome is situated inside a small optical cavity (microcavity). Spontaneous emission is due to the interaction between the excited atom and the vacuum field. The transition rate (and thereby the lifetime of the atom) is given by Fermi’s Golden Rule[1].
