text: Microresonators containing quantum dots find application in devices like single
photon emitters for quantum information technology as well as low threshold laser
devices. We demonstrate the fabrication of 60 nm thin zinc-blende AlN microdisks
including cubic GaN quantum dots using dry chemical etching techniques. Scanning
electron microscopy analysis reveals the morphology with smooth surfaces of the
microdisks. Micro-photoluminescence measurements exhibit optically active quantum
dots. Furthermore this is the first report of resonator modes in the emission
spectrum of a cubic AlN microdisk.

text: "Whispering gallery modes (WGMs) were observed in 60 nm thin cubic AlN microdisk
resonators containing a single layer of non-polar cubic GaN quantum dots. Freestanding
microdisks were patterned by means of electron beam lithography and a two step
reactive ion etching process. Micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy investigations
were performed for optical characterization. We analyzed the mode spacing for
disk diameters ranging from 2-4 lm. Numerical investigations using three dimensional
finite difference time domain calculations were in good agreement\r\nwith the
experimental data. Whispering gallery modes of the radial orders 1 and 2 were
identified by means of simulated mode field distributions."

text: "We numerically investigate the coupling between circular resonators and study
strong light‐matter coupling of single as well as multiple circular resonators
to quantum‐mechanical resonators in two dimensional model simulations. For all
cases, the computed resonances of the coupled system as function of the detuning
show anti‐crossings.\r\n\r\nThe obtained mode splittings of coupled optical resonators
are strongly depending on distance and cluster in almost degenerate eigenstates
for large distances, as is known from coupled resonator optical waveguides. Vacuum
Rabi splitting is observed for a quantum dot strongly coupled to eigenmodes of
single perfectly cylindrical resonators. "

text: We numerically investigate the behavior of Whispering Gallery Modes (WGMs)
in circularly shaped resonators like microdisks, with diameters in the range of
optical vacuum wavelengths. The microdisk is embedded in an uniaxial anisotropic
dielectric environment. By changing the optical anisotropy, one obtains spectral
tunability of the optical modes. The degree of tunability strongly depends on
the radial (azimuthal) mode order M (N). As the modes approach each other spectrally,
anticrossing is observed, leading to a rearrangement of the optical states.

text: GaAs-based semiconductor microdisks with high quality whispering gallery modes
(Q44000) have been fabricated.A layer of self-organized InAs quantumdots (QDs)
served as a light source to feed the optical modes at room temperature. In order
to achieve frequency tuning of the optical modes, the microdisk devices have been
immersed in 4 – cyano – 4´-pentylbiphenyl (5CB), a liquid crystal(LC) with a nematic
phase below the clearing temperature of TC≈34°C .We have studied the device performance
in the temperature rangeof T=20-50°C, in order to investigate the influence of
the nematic–isotropic phase transition on the optical modes. Moreover,we havea
pplied an AC electric field to the device,which leads in the nematic phase to
a reorientation of the anisotropic dielectric tensor of the liquid crystal.This
electrical anisotropy can be used to achieve electrical tunability of the optical
modes.Using the finite-difference time domain (FDTD) technique with an anisotropic
material model, we are able to describe the influence of the liquid crystal qualitatively.

text: "Microdisks made from GaAs with embedded InAs quantum dots are immersed in
the liquid crystal 4-cyano-4’-pentylbiphenyl (5CB). The quantum dots serve as
emitters feeding the optical modes of the photonic cavity. By changing temperature,
the liquid crystal undergoes a phase transition from the isotropic to the nematic
state, which can be used\r\nas an effective tuning mechanism of the photonic modes
of the cavity. In the nematic state, the uniaxial electrical anisotropy of the
liquid crystal molecules can be exploited for orienting the material in an electric
field,\r\nthus externally controlling the birefringence of the material. Using
this effect, an electric field induced tuning of the modes is achieved. Numerical
simulations using the finite-differences time-domain (FDTD) technique\r\nemploying
an anisotropic dielectric medium allow to understand the alignment of the liquid
crystal molecules on the surface of the microdisk resonator."
