Abstract
Radiation pattern of Erbium ions located inside a dielectric resonant microcavity is investigated theoretically. We show that spontaneous em ission of Erbium ions can be spatially controlled and enhanced in a di rection normal to the structure. Investigation of the power emitted in to the guided modes of the structure shows that this guided power must be considered for an accurate design of the spontaneous emission cont rol into planar microcavities.
