Resonance fluorescence of single quantum dots (QDs) as well as cavity quantum electrodynamics (cQED) in high quality QD-microcavities have been subject of extensive research interest in recent years. We employ resonance fluorescence to study cQED effects in high-quality QD-micropillar cavities. An advanced 90 degree excitation/detection scheme as well as spatial filtering is employed to separate excitation and signal. This study of cQED phenomena includes investigation of fundamental cavity effects in the coupled QD-micropillar system in both weak and strong coupling regime as well as their application in non-classical light sources. We investigate strict resonant excitation in the strong coupling regime. In this regime with enhanced light-matter-coupling strength the off-resonant QD-cavity coupling is very efficient and allows us to use the cavity mode emission as a convenient monitor in resonance fluorescence experiments on single QD under variation of the spectral detuning with the cavity mode. Moreover, using resonance fluorescence, dephasing of QD transitions is reduced, which in turn enables the investigation of effects such as higher ranks of the Jaynes-Cummings ladder not accessible in non-resonant excitation schemes.
