Abstract
We developed a compact dual-wavelength surface-emitting light source using InAs quantum dots (QDs) embedded in a vertical cavity (VC). The VC was designed to possess two optical cavity modes that resonate with the discrete emission lines of the QDs. The fabricated light source exhibited significant enhancements in the vertical light emission corresponding to the VC modes. In addition, the light source demonstrated selectivity to the enhanced emission wavelengths with changes in temperature. Compared to conventional dual-wavelength vertical external cavity surface-emitting lasers, these QD-based dual-wavelength emission devices allow for the realization of simple structures because the InAs QDs act as dual-light-emitting materials. These results can be applied to simple dual-wavelength surface-emitting light sources.
