Abstract

Photonic crystal surface emitting lasers (PCSELs) are a new class of laser diode, offering control over emission (wavelength, polarisation, beam shape) through photonic crystal design, as well as power scalability and low beam divergence. We present developments in 2D arrays of large scale (~150x150um) PCSELs, coherently coupled by 1mm long, 100 μm wide waveguides that can be electrically driven into loss or gain. By studying the spectral and current-power characteristics, we show coherent power scaling between multiple devices. We discuss injection locking between devices achieved through controllable 2D in-plane feedback and its effect on the near and far field emissions.
