Abstract

We demonstrate high-output-power and high-efficiency operation of 1.3-µm-wavelength InP-based photonic-crystal surface-emitting lasers (PCSELs). By introducing a metal reflector and adjusting the phase of the reflected light via optimization of the thickness of the p-InP cladding layer, we successfully achieve an output power of approximately 400 mW with the slope efficiency of 0.4 W/A and the wall-plug efficiency of 20% under CW conditions. In addition, this PCSEL exhibits a narrow circular beam with a divergence angle below 1.6° even at high output powers under CW conditions at temperatures from 15°C to 50°C. We have also demonstrated an output power of over 12 W under pulsed conditions at room temperature.
