Abstract
Distributed feedback lasing and surface plasmon lasing were achieved in a single laser device. The laser cavity consisted of a four-layer structure including two metal films, a grating, and a gain material; the cavity was fabricated by combining interference lithography and metal evaporation. A hollow structure was employed to overcome the Joule losses of the metal film. The total thickness of the multilayer structure was 350 nm. The lasing threshold for this hybrid lasing was decreased significantly owing to the coupling between the SP mode in two metal films and the waveguide mode. The combination of SP lasing and distributed feedback lasing could benefit the design of biosensors, all-optical circuits, and electrically pumped devices.
