Abstract

The authors have fabricated pillar microcavity samples with Bragg mirrors consisting of alternate layers of GaAs and aluminum oxide. Compared to the more widely studied GaAs∕AlAs micropillars, these mirrors can achieve higher reflectivities with fewer layer repeats and reduce the mode volume. The authors have studied a number of samples containing a low density of InGaAs∕GaAs self-assembled quantum dots in a cavity and here report observation of a threefold enhancement in the radiative lifetime of a quantum dot exciton state due to the Purcell effect.
