The paper reviews the work on cavity quantum electrodynamics performed in our laboratory using the one‐atom maser and the single ion trap laser. Furthermore a brief survey on other cavity quantum electrodynamic experiments using single atoms is given in order to show the large variety of problems which can be investigated with this kind of systems.
