Distinctive Signature of Indium Gallium Nitride Quantum Dot Lasing in Microdisks Cavities

Alexander Woolf, Tim Puchtler, Igor Aharonovich +5

Low threshold lasers realized within compact, high quality optical cavities enable a variety of nanophotonics applications. Gallium nitride (GaN) materials containing indium galliu…

Geometry-induced Casimir suspension of oblate bodies in fluids

Alejandro W. Rodriguez, M. T. Homer Reid, Francesco Intravaia +4

We predict that a low-permittivity oblate body (disk-shaped object) above a thin metal substrate (plate with a hole) immersed in a fluidof intermediate permittivity will experience…

Controlled tuning of whispering gallery modes of GaN/InGaN microdisk cavities

Igor Aharonovich, Nan Niu, Fabian Rol +6

Controlled tuning of the whispering gallery modes of GaN/InGaN μ-disk cavities is demonstrated. The whispering gallery mode (WGM) tuning is achieved at room temperature by immersin…
