Abstract
We report on the design and fabrication of heterogeneous and compact surface-emitting microlasers, optically pumped and operating at 1.5μm at room-temperature. A very low threshold, below 15μW, is achieved. The devices consists of a top two-dimensional InP photonic crystal slab, including four InAsP quantum wells, a SiO2 bonding layer, and a bottom high index contrast Si∕SiO2 Bragg mirror deposited on a Si wafer. The graphitelike photonic crystal lattice is tailored for vertical emission. We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate that the Bragg reflector can strongly enhance the quality factor of the photonic crystal resonant mode, leading to a drastic decrease of the lasing threshold.
