We present three different methods for the production of (sub-) micrometer optical cavities with pyramidal shape made of II-VI/III-V semiconductors. One method is the selective etching (H3PO4:H2O2:H2O solution) of an AlAs/GaAs structure. The AlAs sacrificial layer controls the lateral etching rate and influences the cross-sectional profile of the GaAs pyramidal objects. Another possibility is the selective growth of self-organized CdSe/ZnSe structures on pre-patterned GaAs (001) surfaces. Growth was performed by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). A more direct method is Focussed Ion Beam (FIB). Structures in CdSe/ZnSe multiple quantum wells were prepared by this technique using a Ga ion beam without the necessity of further process steps. All samples were examined for their optical quality using µ-PL.
