Abstract
Spectral splitting due to the exciton response of a three InGaAs quant um well active region placed in various high contrast semiconductor mi crocavities is observed near room temperature. The planar microcavitie s consist of one-wavelength thick cavity spacers surrounded by AlGaAs/ CaAs along with high contrast distributed Bragg reflectors formed from AlxOy/GaAs and MgF/ZnSe. Microcavities having different loss rates ar e characterized over a range of temperatures using reflectance, transm ission, and photoluminescence. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
