Journal ArticleDOI
Thresholdless nanoscale coaxial lasers
Mercedeh Khajavikhan,Aleksandar Simic,Michael Katz,J. H. Lee,J. H. Lee,Boris Slutsky,Amit Mizrahi,Vitaliy Lomakin,Yeshaiahu Fainman +8 more
TL;DR: A family of coaxial nanostructured cavities that potentially solve the resonator scalability challenge by means of their geometry and metal composition are described, and the smallest room-temperature, continuous-wave telecommunications-frequency laser to date is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subwavelength semiconductor lasers for dense chip-scale integration
Qing Gu,Joseph S. T. Smalley,Maziar P. Nezhad,Aleksandar Simic,Jin Hyoung Lee,Michael Katz,Olesya Bondarenko,Boris Slutsky,Amit Mizrahi,Vitaliy Lomakin,Yeshaiahu Fainman +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a formal treatment of the Purcell effect for metal-clad subwavelength lasers is presented to assist in better understanding the quantum effects in these nanoscale semiconductor lasers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Electrically pumped metallo-dielectric pedestal nanolasers
Qing Gu,Brett Wingad,Felipe Vallini,Boris Slutsky,Michael Katz,Maziar P. Nezhad,Newton C. Frateschi,Yeshaiahu Fainman +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a two-step InP chemical etching was employed to obtain straight pedestal sidewalls and preferentially reduce the diameter of the n-doped InP cladding more than the pdoped one for optimized performance.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Geometry Optimization of Nanopatch Semiconductor Lasers: the Trade-off between Quality Factor and Gain
Felipe Vallini,Qing Gu,Brett Wingad,Boris Slutsky,Michael Katz,Yeshaiahu Fainman,Newton C. Frateschi +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a design optimization of the nanopatch semiconductor laser was presented for the best combination of quality factor (photonic lifetime) and stimulated emission (gain) of the laser.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Room-temperature and continuous-wave lasing with nanoscale coaxial cavities
Mercedeh Khajavikhan,Aleksandar Simic,Michael Katz,Jin Hyoung Lee,Boris Slutsky,Amit Mizrahi,Vitaliy Lomakin,Yeshaiahu Fainman +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate continuous-wave and room-temperature lasing at telecommunication wavelengths in the smallest cavities to date in subwavelength metallic-plasmonic coaxial cavities.
