Abstract

We report a quasi-semicircle GaN ultraviolet microcavity laser. Poincaré map of the quasi-semicircle cavity shows periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic optical trajectories. Finite-element-method optical near-field distribution patterns of the periodic optical modes agree with the optical loops in the quasi-semicircle cavity. Based on the numerical results, optically pumped lasing experiment shows that ultraviolet multimode lasing action from different optical resonance modes can be effectively stimulated at low pumping intensity in the quasi-semicircle GaN cavity, and the side-mode suppression phenomenon can be obtained at high pumping intensity. Because the possible period optical loops are quasi-periodic and unstable, the quasi-whispering-gallery mode lasing with higher quality factor prefer to dominate the lasing action under high pumping. The experimental and simulated lasing modes suggest that side-mode suppression phenomenon can be caused by the mode competition between quasi-whispering-gallery modes and other quasi-periodic modes.
