Laterally confined photonic crystal surface emitting laser incorporating monolayer tungsten disulfide

Abstract: We report a photonic crystal surface emitting laser using monolayer tungsten disulfide as the gain medium. The cavity design utilizes a heterostructure in the photonic crystal lattice to provide lateral confinement for a high quality factor with a compact active region. Room temperature continuous wave lasing is realized after integrating monolayer tungsten disulfide flakes onto the silicon nitride photonic crystal on quartz substrate. Highly directional, near surface normal emission has also been experimental… Show more

“…For example, TMDCs on a photonic-crystal cavity with a thickness of 180 nm can emit enhanced PL, but the lasing emission can be induced when the thickness decreases from 180 to 125 nm because of the better thickness-to-lattice-constant ratio and enhanced sidewall verticality. [155,179] Up to now, the photonic crystal cavity is the most commonly used structure for 2DMs-based lasers, [155,161,172,180] and several different photonic-crystal surface-emitting lasers based on 2DMs have already been achieved through optimizing the device structures.…”

“…Alternatively, one can create oxygen-bonding-based defects or cracks in chemically doped TMDs [ 14 ] and significantly enhance the optical emission from these sites. In the second approach, researchers usually apply different nanophotonic structures [ 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ] to TMDs to dramatically increase the light–matter interactions of TMDs. For example, the use of different photonic crystal (PhC) structures [ 15 , 16 , 17 ] with photonic bands and bandgaps for guiding and locally confining optical waves can efficiently accumulate photons in spatial and temporal domains.…”

By utilizing a PhC cavity [ 18 , 19 , 20 ] with a sufficiently high-quality factor, such enhancement can even realize lasers.…”
