Abstract
We herein propose and verify an ultra-small near-infrared (NIR) multi-wavelength light source using a heterojunction photonic crystal waveguide (PC-WG) and quantum dots (QDs). A heterojunction two-dimensional PC-WG, which consists of multiple PC-WGs with sequentially shifted structural parameters, is fabricated on a GaAs-slab including InAs QDs. Spontaneous emission (SE) from embedded InAs QDs was enhanced at multiple wavelengths resonating with slow-light regions of the PC-WG modes. The enhanced SE was propagated and detected through the heterojunction PC-WG. These results indicate the feasibility of the proposed light source.
