Designing light-emitting diode arrays for uniform near-field irradiance.
We analyze the first-order design of light sources consisting of multiple light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to uniformly illuminate a near target plane by considering each single LED as an imperfect Lambertian emitter. Simple approximate equations and formulas are derived for the optimum LED-to-LED spacing, i.e., the optimum packaging density, of several array configurations to achieve uniform near-...
متن کاملPump intensity profiling of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers using near-field scanning optical microscopy
We have mapped the internal pump intensity distribution of an optically pumped vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser. Spontaneous emission from quantum wells placed throughout the distributed Bragg reflectors is correlated to the pump intensity. The emission is monitored along the cleaved edge using the high spatial resolution and shallow depth of field provided by near-field scanning optical ...
متن کاملFeedback-induced chaos and intensity-noise enhancement in vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers
We investigate numerically the effects of optical feedback on the intensity noise of vertical-cavity surfaceemitting lasers (VCSEL’s) under single-mode and two-mode operations. Our model includes transverse effects such as carrier diffusion and spatial hole-burning. Results indicate that the relative-intensity noise is relatively unaffected at low feedback levels except for a narrowing and enha...
متن کاملIntensity and phase noise in microcavity surface-emitting semiconductor lasers
The noise characteristics of vertical-cavity surface-emitting (VCSE) lasers are studied by using the Langevin rate equations modified suitably to include the enhanced spontaneous emission occurring in such microcavity lasers. The intensity and frequency noise spectra show the effects induced by suppression of relaxation oscillations. However, such a suppression depends on the output power as we...
متن کاملPolarization resolved intensity noise in vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers
We report explicit analytical and numerical results for the polarization resolved intensity noise of verticalcavity surface-emitting lasers operating in the fundamental transverse mode. We describe the fluctuations of the linear and circular polarization components of linearly polarized states on both sides of a nonthermal polarization switching. Our description is valid for small and large bir...
