چکیده
A novel type of nanolasers, which combines the advantages of photonic crystal lasers and microdisk lasers, has been demonstrated based on InAlGaAs/InGaAs quantum wells using pulsed optical pumping at room temperature. It incorporates the properties of small footprint, small mode volume, and submilliwatt threshold, and favors vertical emission. We believe that this type of laser acts as a promising candidate for highly-integrated on-chip nanolasers in applications for signal processing and index sensing.

Design of the [SiO2/ZrO2] photonic crystal filter for application in 350-nm laser safety glasses
In this paper, a one-dimensional photonic crystal filter based on the [SiO2/ZrO2] bilayer have been designed for application in safety glasses for working in 350-nm wavelength. High power lasers with low wavelength e.g. 350-nm have very high power which can cause serious damage to the operator’s eyes. In this paper using the transfer matrix method and theoretical calculation in MATLAB software ...
متن کاملPhotonic crystal circular-shaped microcavity and its uniform cavity-waveguide coupling property due to presence of whispering gallery mode.
In this report, we investigate a photonic crystal circular-shaped microcavity (removing seven air holes) sustaining whispering-gallery mode (WGM) by shifting the 12 nearest air holes according to the concept of cavity-shaping in micro-disk and micro-gear lasers. The WGM modal characteristics are investigated by three-dimensional (3D) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. From well-f...
متن کاملPhotonic crystal laser sources for chemical detection
We have realized photonic crystal lasers that permit the introduction of analyte within the peak of the optical field of the lasing mode. We have explored the design compromises for developing such sensitive low-threshold spectroscopy sources, and demonstrate the operation of photonic crystal lasers in different ambient organic solutions. We show that nanocavity lasers can be used to perform sp...
متن کاملHigh frequency oscillation in photonic crystal nanolasers
We observed modulated oscillations in lasers of up to 130 GHz by conducting frequency domain measurements on photonic crystal lasers with built-in saturable absorbers. This is an example of how the small volumes of photonic crystal lasers lead to increases in the internal modulation frequencies and enables dramatic improvements of the laser modulation rate. © 2004 American Institute of Physics....

We present novel designs and demonstrate a fabrication platform for electrically driven lasers based on high quality-factor photonic crystal cavities realized in mid-infrared quantum cascade laser material. The structures are based on deep-etched ridges with their sides perforated with photonic crystal lattice, using focused ion beam milling. In this way, a photonic gap is opened for the emitte...
