Enhanced spontaneous emission from InAs/GaAs quantum dots in pillar microcavities emitting at telecom wavelengths.

Optical properties of InAs/GaAs quantum dots in micropillar cavities emitting at 1.3 microm are studied by time-resolved microphotoluminescence. The Purcell effect is observed with an enhancement of the decay rate by a factor of two for quantum dots in resonance with the cavity mode.
