摘要: In a recent publication [N. Antoine-Vincent, F. Natali, D. Byrne, A. Vasson, P. Disseix, J. Leymarie, M. Leroux, Semond, Massies, Phys. Rev. B 68 (2003) 153313], we have highlighted for the first time exciton–photon strong coupling in GaN-based microcavity and obtained Rabi splitting of 31 meV persistent at 77 K. Our aim is now to study feasibility microcavities which regime would be maintained room temperature.
