The applications of surface-emitting lasers, in particular vertical-cavity surface-emitting
lasers (VCSELs), are currently being extended to various low-power fields including …

The phenomena occurring in semiconductor lasers due to weak external optical feedback
are reviewed, including mode hopping and related mode-hopping noise, linewidth …

An electrically pumped DFB laser integrated on and coupled to a silicon waveguide circuit is
demonstrated by transfer printing a 40× 970 μm^ 2 III-V coupon, defined on a III-V epitaxial …

We demonstrate a heterogeneously integrated III-V-on-SOI distributed feedback laser with a
low grating strength (κ< 40 cm^− 1) and a narrow linewidth of Δν= 118 kHz. The laser …

We have demonstrated slow propagation of surface plasmons on metallic Moiré surfaces.
The phase shift at the node of the Moiré surface localizes the propagating surface plasmons …

Optical gain and loss are considered as a pair of feuds. It is widely believed that optical loss
is the most detrimental factor in laser systems that decreases the laser efficiency. The …

We propose a new kind of planar waveguide Bragg grating structure, ie, planar waveguide
moiré grating (MG), which is formed by two transverse adjacent gratings with slightly …

A quasi-3-D semiconductor laser model that takes into account both longitudinal and lateral
spatial hole burning is presented and used to perform calculations of the longitudinal side …

Methods for reducing or eliminating longitudinal spatial hole burning in antireflection-coated,
index-coupled distributed feedback (DFB) lasers are discussed. It is shown that elimination …

High-coupling (grating coupling constant= 3.0) phase-shifted distributed-feedback (DFB)
lasers are studied using a transmission-line laser model (TTLM) which includes spatial hole …
