Quantum well photodetector in a free-standing photonic crystal slab
The fascinating optical properties of photonic crystals (PCs) have lead to numerous new devices or ways to improve existing device characteristics [1]. Photonic crystal slabs (PCS) are of particular interest due to their strong resonant behavior and three-dimensional light confinement, while being compatible with standard semiconductor technology. In this work, we present a photodetector within...
متن کاملLow-threshold photonic crystal laser
We have fabricated photonic crystal nanocavity lasers, based on a high-quality factor design that incorporates fractional edge dislocations. Lasers with InGaAsP quantum well active material emitting at 1550 nm were optically pumped with 10 ns pulses, and lased at threshold pumping powers below 220 mW, the lowest reported for quantum-well based photonic crystal lasers, to our knowledge. Polariza...
متن کاملTaper structures for coupling into photonic crystal slab waveguides
We present an adiabatic taper design in three dimensions for coupling light into photonic crystal defect waveguides in a square lattice of circular dielectric rods. The taper is a two-stage structure in which the first stage makes the transition from a dielectric waveguide to a coupled-cavity waveguide. The second stage subsequently transforms the waveguide mode from an index-guided mode to a b...
متن کاملThreshold Characteristics of Slow-Light Photonic Crystal Lasers.
The threshold properties of photonic crystal quantum dot lasers operating in the slow-light regime are investigated experimentally and theoretically. Measurements show that, in contrast to conventional lasers, the threshold gain attains a minimum value for a specific cavity length. The experimental results are explained by an analytical theory for the laser threshold that takes into account the...
متن کاملInGaAsP photonic band gap crystal membrane microresonators*
We have microfabricated two-dimensional ~2D! photonic band gap structures in a thin slab of dielectric material to define reflectors and high-Q microresonators. By selectively omitting holes from the 2D photonic crystal, optical microcavities, and in-plane microresonator switches can be defined. We have designed this structure with a finite difference time domain approach, and demonstrate the e...
