Abstract
We studied the polarized laser emission from an anisotropic one-dimensional (1D) birefringent photonic crystal (PC) laser. An active medium layer, which consisted of an epoxy resin doped with fluorescent dye, was sandwiched between two anisotropic 1D PC films. It was shown that efficient laser emissions were generated by optical pumping at relatively low lasing thresholds. The wavelengths of the emitted lasers were 611 and 618 nm, which correspond to the two split eigenmodes at the low-energy band edges that are due to the anisotropy of the PCs. We also demonstrated that the polarization of the lasing emission can be controlled by adjusting the birefringence of the anisotropic PCs.
