Abstract
Quantum wells (QWs) embedded in microcavities (MCs) are now employed to investigate both fundamental and applied aspects of photonics,1,2 e.g., luminescence enhancement and an analogue of vacuum Rabi splitting3 have been demonstrated in solid-state monolithic structures. The aim of our investigations is a comparison between reflectance and photoluminescence spectra measured on a system consisting of a monolithic half-wavelength MC with two QWs and calculations for the idealized structure. The reflectance spectra are computed by means of the transfer matrix technique4 assuming the cavity mode and one luminescence line to be degenerated. Excitonic absorption in the In0.1Ga0.9As QWs has been taken into account by classical oscillators leading to a Lorentzian-type resonant term in the complex dielectric function ϵ(ω).
