摘要
We report on electrically pumped high-Q quantum dot-micropillar cavities with quality factors of up to 16.000. A special current injection scheme using a ring-shaped upper contact is presented which ensures an efficient light out-coupling through the uncapped upper surface of the micropillar. The devices feature excellent single-quantum dot cavity quantum electrodynamic effects with a Purcell enhancement of about 10 for a micropillar with a diameter of 2.5 mu m.
