Directional light coupling from microdisk lasers
Recently we have investigated the possibility of fabricating optically active microstructures which may potentially be of use in future photonic or optoelectronic circuits. As a first step in this direction we demonstrated the concept of a whispering-gallery mode microdisk laser. ly2 The device makes use of optical modes at the edge of a thin semiconductor dielectric disk which is 2-10 pm in di...
متن کاملDirectional laser emission from a wavelength-scale chaotic microcavity.
We demonstrate directional output from a deformed disk laser of dimensions comparable to the emission wavelength. Unlike larger deformed cavity lasers, which exhibit universal output directionality determined by chaotic ray dynamics, the far-field patterns differ between lasing modes. The directional emission results from weak coupling of isotropic high-quality modes to anisotropic low-quality ...
متن کاملFour-wavelength Microdisk Lasers Laterally Coupling to an Output Bus Waveguide
A multiple-wavelength GaInAsP/InP microlaser with microdisk radiuses from 10 m to 10.6 m laterally coupled into a bus waveguide are fabricated by standard photolithygraphy and inductively coupled-plasma (ICP) etching techniques. The lasing wavelengths are 1533 nm, 1541 nm, 1551 nm and 1555 nm at the CW injection current of 10 mA for the four microlasers. The proposed multiple-microlaser array w...
متن کاملWavelength-selective directional coupling with dielectric-loaded plasmonic waveguides.
We consider wavelength-selective splitting of radiation using directional couplers (DCs) formed by dielectric-loaded surface-plasmon-polariton waveguides (DLSPPWs). The DCs were fabricated by depositing sub-wavelength-sized polymer ridges on a gold film using large-scale UV photolithography and characterized at telecommunications wavelengths with near-field microscopy. We demonstrate a DLSPPW-b...
متن کاملWavelength Tunable Laser with Silica-Waveguide Ring Resonators
We have proposed a tunable laser with silica-waveguide ring resonators. In this tunable laser, a semiconductor optical amplifier was passively aligned and mounted onto a silica-waveguide substrate. The ring resonators can be tuned by controlling their temperatures using the thermo optic heaters formed on them, and there are no mechanically moving parts. Thus, they are sufficiently stable and re...
