Higher-order defect mode laser in an optically thick photonic crystal slab
Se-Heon Kim, Jingqing Huang, Axel Scherer
The use of an optically thick slab may provide versatile solutions for the realization of a current injection type laser using photonic crystals. Here, we show that a transversely…
High-Q impurity photon states bounded by a photonic-band-pseudogap in an optically-thick photonic-crystal slab
Se-Heon Kim, Andrew Homyk, Sameer Walavalkar +1
We show that, taking a two-dimensional photonic-crystal slab system as an example, surprisingly high quality factors (Q) over 10^5 are achievable, even in the absence of a rigorous…
A photonic crystal nanocavity laser in an optically very thick slab
Se-Heon Kim, Jingqing Huang, Axel Scherer
A photonic crystal (PhC) nanocavity formed in an optically very thick slab can support reasonably high-Q modes for lasing. Experimentally, we demonstrate room-temperature pulsed la…
From vertical-cavities to hybrid metal/photonic-crystal nanocavities: Towards high-efficiency nanolasers
Se-Heon Kim, Jingqing Huang, Axel Scherer
We provide a numerical study showing that a bottom reflector is indispensable to achieve unidirectional emission from a photonic-crystal (PhC) nanolaser. First, we study a PhC slab…
Photodetection in silicon beyond the band edge with surface states
T. Baehr-Jones, M. Hochberg, A. Scherer
Silicon is an extremely attractive material platform for integrated optics at telecommunications wavelengths, particularly for integration with CMOS circuits. Developing detectors…
Planar Atom Trap and Magnetic Resonance 'Lens' Designs
M. Barbic, C. P. Barrett, T. H. Emery +1
We present various planar magnetic designs that create points above the plane where the magnitude of the static magnetic field is a local minimum. Structures with these properties…
