13. Under low intensity continuous wave excitation, the localized exciton feature has about equal strength to that of the polariton emission [G. Christmann and R. Butt́ (private communication)]. At high excitation in Fig., the localized emission probably saturates, thus accounting for its very small relative intensity. It is notable that the width of the localized exciton peak in the full cavity is approximately a factor of two broader than the PL from the half cavity shown in Fig.. The reason for this is not fully understood, but may be due to nonuniform strain induced by the deposition of the top dielectric mirror.
