Spectral linewidth in microcavity surface-emitting lasers
The Schawlow-Townes expression for the laser linewidth predicts a substantial cw linewidth enhancement in microcavity lasers, in which a large fraction of spontaneous emission is directed into the lasing mode, in contrast with conventional semiconductor lasers, in which the lasing mode accepts only a tiny fraction of spontaneously emitted photons. By performing a theoretical analysis of rigorou...
متن کاملChaos-assisted directional light emission from microcavity lasers.
We study the effect of dynamical tunneling on emission from ray-chaotic microcavities by introducing a suitably designed deformed disk cavity. We focus on its high quality factor modes strongly localized along a stable periodic ray orbit confined by total internal reflection. It is shown that dominant emission originates from the tunneling from the periodic ray orbit to chaotic ones; the latter...
متن کاملWave chaos in real-world vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers.
We report the onset of wave chaos in a real-world vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser. In a joint experimental and modeling approach we demonstrate that a small deformation in one layer of the complicated laser structure changes the emission properties qualitatively. Based on the analysis of the spatial emission profiles and spectral eigenvalue spacing distributions, we attribute these chang...
متن کاملTheory of two-dimensional microcavity lasers
Various kinds of devices, such as lasers and musical instruments, utilize stationary-wave oscillations in resonant cavities. In order to maintain stationary oscillation in these devices, nonlinearity is essential in the mechanism for balancing the pumping of the external energy and the decay of the wave of the quasistable state in the resonant cavity. Besides, the interaction between nonlineari...
متن کاملLasing characteristics of InAs quantum dot microcavity lasers as a function of temperature and wavelength.
A Strong temperature dependence of microdisk lasers and photonic crystal nanocavity lasers with InAs quantum dot active regions is reported. These lasers operate at 1.3 microm at room temperature under optical pumping conditions. T(0, microdisk) = 31 K. T(0, photonic crystal nanocavity) = 14 K. The lasing threshold dependence on the lasing wavelength is also reported. We observe a minimum absor...
