摘要：
The fabrication of micropillar microcavities containing a fluorescent organic dye is reported. Scanning near-field optical microscopy of the luminescence from such Structures (see figure and cover) confirms that a significant increase in radiative rate Occurs as a result of the reduced Optical-mode Volume. Such structures may eventually permit efficient single-photon light sources operating at room temperature to be developed for quantum-cryptography and quantum-computing applications.
