Abstract
Our recent advances in solid-state cavity quantum electrodynamics (CQED) and lasing oscillation in
single quantum dot (QD)-photonic crystal (PhC) nanocavity coupled systems are discussed. These
include the fabrication of high quality two-dimensional PhC nanocavities, which enable the generation
of spontaneous two photon emission from a single QD, and the realization of lasing oscillation with
single QD gain in the strong coupling regime. Moreover, CQED in a one-dimensional PhC nanobeam
cavity is discussed.
