| We report on an optical study of ZnTe based microcavity and micropillars. Angle resolved reflectivity studies confirm a high quality of the investigated structure by setting the lower bound on the quality factor Q ≥q 1000, determined from normal incidence reflection spectra. In a microphotoluminescence study, micropillar modes are observed at temperatures of the order of tens of kelvins. For structures grown by a complex growth procedure at two different MBE facilities, an enhancement of photoluminescence in the cavity mode is observed. |
