The imprint technique can directly be applied onto a variety of substrates including dielectric mirrors. The so fabricated three-dimensional microcavities have lateral extensions up to 20 μm and heights between 1 and 5 μm. Exemplarily, pillar microcavities were produced wherein three-dimensional photonic confinement is observed by the formation of 0D cavity mode patterns. The imprint technique further favors the formation of hemispherical pillar geometries rather than cylindrical pillars, resulting in equidistant mode spacings of transversal cavity modes.
