Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of spontaneous emission from a two-dimensional photonic band gap defined microcavity at near-infrared wavelengths
TL;DR: In this paper, an active, photonic band gap-based microcavity emitter in the near infrared was demonstrated, and the spontaneous emission power and spectrum from a micro cavity formed using a two-dimensional photonic gap structure in a half wavelength thick slab waveguide was measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct measurement of the carrier leakage in an InGaAsP/InP laser
TL;DR: In this article, the carrier leakage over the heterobarrier in an InGaAsP/InP laser is measured directly in a laser-bipolar transistor structure, and it is shown that there is a significant amount of carrier leakage under normal laser operating conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emission properties of a defect cavity in a two-dimensional photonic bandgap crystal slab
TL;DR: In this paper, a single isolated defect within a two-dimensional photonic crystal semiconductor slab is shown to provide a doubly degenerate emission resonance within the photonic bandgap, with a measured quality factor (Q) of 80-150, depending on the cavity geometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Q‐switched ruby laser alloying of Ohmic contacts on gallium arsenide epilayers
TL;DR: Ohmic contacts of AuGe have been produced on GaAs epilayers by laser alloying as mentioned in this paper, which possess morphological and electrical properties which are superior to those formed by conventional alloying.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibration resistance, short coherence length operation, and mode‐locked pumping in passive phase conjugate mirrors
TL;DR: In this article, the ring and semilinear passive phase conjugate mirrors use dynamic transmission holograms and may be pumped with light of short coherence length or with picosecond mode-locked laser light.
