Angle resolved reflectivity measurements, corroborated by transfer-matrix simulations, show that Rabi splittings in the order of 70 meV are achieved even for low finesse cavities. The impact of the large excitonic absorption, which enables a ZnO bulk-like behavior to be observed even in the strong coupling regime, is illustrated both experimentally and theoretically by considering cavities with increasing thickness. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-00348125/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-00348125/file/Publi_ZnO-PRB_Dec08.pdf %L hal-00348125 %U https://hal.science/hal-00348125 %~ UNICE %~ PRES_CLERMONT %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-BPCLERMONT %~ UNIV-MONTP2 %~ GES %~ ACL-SF %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UNIV-COTEDAZUR %~ ANR %~ CRHEA %~ UM1-UM2
