Abstract
En 中文
Optical cavities play a central role in photonic and quantum technologies by enhancing light-matter interactions. In semiconductor microcavities, achieving high quality (Q) factors typically relies on sophisticated epitaxial growth techniques, such as molecular beam epitaxy, which offer atomic-scale precision but are costly and limited in material compatibility. For dielectric microcavities, high Q factors can be achieved using dielectric Bragg mirrors. However, conventional deposition techniques for the top mirrors, such as plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition or sputtering, can damage embedded emitters. This limitation is particularly severe for van der Waals materials, especially atomically thin semiconductors. Moreover, the conventional top-mirror deposition can cover or degrade predefined metal contacts. Recovering electrical access typically requires additional lithography and etching steps. Here, a deterministic dry-transfer approach is developed to fabricate complete dielectric microcavities using both top and bottom SiO 2 ${\rm SiO}_{2}$ / TiO 2 ${\rm TiO}_{2}$ Bragg mirrors without post-growth lift-off processes, reaching a Q factor ∼ $\sim$ 4 × $\times$ 10 3 $^{3}$ . Using a WS 2 ${\rm WS}_{2}$ monolayer as the active medium, clear signatures of strong exciton-photon coupling are observed at both room temperature and cryogenic temperatures. These results demonstrate an efficient cavity fabrication approach that preserves the integrity of the emitter of layered materials, enabling next generation integrated photonic devices.
