Abstract
We report the experimental evidence of spontaneous emission inhibition in an optical cavity.1,2 The Fabry-Perot cavity is accurately tunable by a piezoelectric transducer down to a small fraction of a spontaneous emission wavelength (Fig. 1). As an additional feature the original technique of intracavity periodic excitation of the emitting medium is applied to single out the radiative contribution of excited molecules located at various positions in the cavity.3
