Abstract
A resonant microcavity display (20) having microcavity with a substrate (25), a phosphor active region (50) and front and rear reflectors (30 and 60). The front and rear reflectors may be spaced to create either a standing or treaveling eledtromagnetic wave to enhance the efificenty of the light transmission.

Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that spontaneous emission is not a property of an isolated atom but of an atom-vacuum system and that if these states are modified, such as placing the excited atom between mirrors or in a cavity, spontaneous emission can be greatly inhibited or enhanced.
