In spite of the increasing importance of microcavities, device
physics or the observable phenomena in optical microcavities such
as enhanced or inhibited spontaneous emission and its relation with
the laser oscillation has not been systematically
well-described-until now. Spontaneous Emission and Laser
Oscillation in Microcavities presents the basics of optical
microcavities. The volume is divided into ten chapters, each
written by respected authorities in their areas. The book surveys
several methods describing free space spontaneous emission and
discusses changes in the feature due to the presence of a cavity.
The effect of dephasing of vacuum fields on spontaneous emission in
a microcavity and the effects of atomic broadening on spontaneous
emission in an optical microcavity are examined. The book details
the splitting in transmission peaks of planar microcavities
containing semiconductor quantum wells. A simple but useful way to
consider the change in the spontaneous emission rate from the
viewpoint of mode density alteration by wavelength-sized cavities
is provided. Authors also discuss the spontaneous emission in
dielectric planar microcavities. Spontaneous emission in
microcavity surface emitting lasers is covered, as are the effects
of electron confinement in semiconductor quantum wells, wires, and
boxes also given. The volume extends the controlling spontaneous
emission phenomenon to laser oscillation. Starting from the Fermi
golden rule, the microcavity laser rate equations are derived, and
the oscillation characteristics are analyzed. Recent progress in
optical microcavity experiments is summarized, and the
applicability in massively optical parallel processing systems and
demands for the device performance are explored. This volume is
extremely useful as a textbook for graduate and postgraduate
students and works well as a unique reference for researchers
beginning to study in the field.
