Vertical-external-cavity semiconductor lasers

Surface-emitting semiconductor lasers can make use of external cavities and optical pumping techniques to achieve a combination of high continuous-wave output power and near-diffraction-limited beam quality that is not matched by any other type of semiconductor source. The ready access to the laser mode that the external cavity provides has been exploited for applications such as intra-cavity f...

Polarization fluctuations in vertical cavity surface emitting lasers: a key to the mechanism behind polarization stability

We investigate the effects of the electron-hole spin dynamics on the polarization fluctuations in the light emitted from a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL). The Langevin equations are derived based on a rate equation model including birefringence, dichroism and two carrier density pools separately coupled to right and left circular polarization. The results show that the carrier d...

Numerical Modeling of Vertical Cavity Semiconductor Lasers

A vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) is a diode laser whose optical cavity is formed by growing or depositing DBR mirror stacks that sandwich an active gain region. The resulting short cavity supports lasing into a single longitudinal mode normal to the wafer, making these devices ideal for a multitude of applications, ranging fiom high-speed communication to high-power sources (fro...

Low-frequency fluctuations in vertical-cavity surface-emitting semiconductor lasers with optical feedback

We study the dynamics of a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser operating near threshold and with isotropic optical feedback, using a model developed by San Miguel, Feng, and Moloney @Phys. Rev. A 52, 1728 ~1995!#. The model couples the polarization state of the electric field to the semiconductor medium by including the magnetic sublevels of the conduction and valence bands in the quantum we...

Quantum Noise and Polarization Fluctuations in Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers

We investigate the polarization fluctuations caused by quantum noise in quantum well vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). Langevin equations are derived on the basis of a generalized rate equation model in which the influence of competing gain-loss and frequency anisotropies is included. This reveals how the anisotropies and the quantum well confinement effects shape the correlatio...
