Left: A scanning-electron-microscope image of a micropost microcavity containing a single quantum dot, which can efficiently emit single photons. The height is 4.2 microns. Right: A simulation depicting the amplitude of the electric field for the fundamental mode inside the microcavity. [Matthew Pelton, Charles Santori, Jelena Vuc̆ković, Bingyang Zhang, Glenn S.
