## Abstract We study theoretically the optical losses in a microcavity made of porous silicon. A quantum derivation of the shape of the resonant transmittance peak for the general case is presented and then we analyze the effect of Rayleigh scattering of light on the disordered structure of porous

โฆ Synopsis
The advantages of the simultaneous quantum manipulation of electron and photon systems due to quantum-confined Stark effect and cavity quantum electrodynamics, respectively, in semiconductor planar microcavities are clarified, manifesting systematic experimental results on high transfer efficiencies (โผ 15%) of spontaneous emissions and cavity-induced fractional changes (โผ 30%) of luminescence decay times around on-axis resonance. The same scheme also allows us to proceed with the systematic investigation of the oscillatorstrength dependence of cavity mode splitting in the planar cavities. The simultaneous quantum manipulation is expected to lead to attractive device concepts for highly efficient, high-speed spontaneous light emitters and generators of THz electromagnetic waves.
