Journal ArticleDOI
Polarisation-independent Bragg gratings in ion-exchanged glass channel waveguides
D. F. Geraghty,Dan Provenzano,Michael M. Morrell,J. Ingenhoff,B. Drapp,Seppo Honkanen,Amnon Yariv,Nasser Peyghambarian +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the polarisation dependence of Bragg gratings photowritten in ion-exchanged glass waveguides is characterized for waveguide with different mask-opening widths and burial depths.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of circular photonic crystal cavities – beyond coupled mode theory
TL;DR: The dependence of the resonator characteristics on the reflector design and parameters is studied in detail and high quality factors and small modal volumes are found for a wide variety of design parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrically-pumped, broad-area, single-mode photonic crystal lasers.
TL;DR: This paper proposes and demonstrates effective index-guided, large-area, edge-emitting photonic crystal lasers driven by pulsed electrical current injection at the optical telecommunication wavelength of 1550 nm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the dynamic response of multielement semiconductor lasers
R. Lang,Amnon Yariv +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the amplitude and phase of the modulated cavity adiabatically follow the complex resonance of the composite cavity; and using this relation, plus linearized carrier equations, calculate the parameters characterizing the modulation response of a composite system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transverse Bragg resonance laser amplifier.
TL;DR: A new type of optical amplifier is proposed that is formed by addition of gain in the periodic cladding of a transverse Bragg resonance waveguide using the coupled-wave formalism and, for comparison, the gain enhancement compared with those of conventional semiconductor optical amplifiers.
