Sub-micron diameter micropillar cavities with high Quality factors and ultra-small mode volumes

Abstract

We theoretically demonstrate high Quality factor micropillar cavities with record low mode volumes based on the TiO2/SiO2 material system. The proposed cavities have Q/V three orders of magnitude larger than previously reported ones. We show that our cavity embedded with diamond nanocrystal provides a feasible platform for cavity quantum electrodynamics experiments in the strong coupling limit.
