Lasing relies on light amplification in the active medium of an optical resonator. There are
three lasing regimes in the emission from a quantum well coupled to a semiconductor …

In polariton microcavities, the upper polariton branch is often hardly observable in reflectivity
or photoluminescence measurements, which hampers reliable determination of the vacuum …

This work presents the development and optical investigations of semiconductor
microcavities based on II-VI compounds. The most relevant results of this thesis concern the …

Distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) is a multilayer periodic structure with a high reflectance of
the light due to the constructive interferences. Applications of DBRs include lasers, solar …
