Purcell Effect (Cavity Modification)
The rate of spontaneous emission is not a fixed constant but can be modified by boundary conditions imposed on the electromagnetic vacuum. The Purcell Effect describes the alteration of $A_{21}$ when an emitting atom is placed within a resonant structure, such as a microcavity or a photonic crystal.
