Abstract
Nanolasers based on quasi-bound states in the continuum (quasi-BIC) have attracted much attention owing to their unique optical properties providing strong light-matter interaction. Although various quasi-BIC lasers have been designed, so far, few efforts have been devoted to their tunability in wavelength. Here we propose an approach to employ quasi-BIC and guided mode in a slanted resonant waveguide grating. The proposed structure supports a specially designed eigenmode localized both in the grating and in the 4-dimethylamino-N-methyl-4-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST) layer, which allows it to obtain lasing emission as well as the ability to tune the wavelength. Numerical simulation results show that the threshold is approximately 7.75 μJ/cm2 with the tuning range being 28 nm. In addition, we show that the distribution of the lasing intensity between the transmission and reflection directions can be controlled by changing the parameters of the structure. This work shows good potential of combining quasi-BIC with guided mode to design tunable nanolaser.
