Dynamics of the spontaneous emission from a two-level atom embedded in a bisphere microcavity is analyzed theoretically. A bisphere supports a morphology-dependent resonance having such a high quality factor with local field enhancement that the strong coupling between the atom and the cavity can be realized. By taking full account of the photon degree of freedom, we derive theoretically the coupling constant between the atom and the cavity as well as the radiation damping constants, which are used in the conventional cavity QED approach. In addition, we show that the power spectrum of the spontaneous emission at a local observation point is strongly affected by the photon Green function.
