In contrast to a conventional symmetric Lorentzian resonance, Fano resonance is
predominantly used to describe asymmetric-shaped resonances, which arise from the …

Materials exhibiting multidimensional structure with characteristic lengths ranging from the
nanometer to the micrometer scale have extraordinary potential for emerging optical …

In this article we present a novel approach for determining the electromagnetic modes of
photonic multilayer structures. We combine the plane wave expansion method with the …

In this paper we report on the evidence of polarized and spatially localized emission of a
Tamm laser. The polarized emission results from an anisotropic three-dimensional …

A novel design to achieve phase matching between modes of a vertical distributed Bragg
reflector waveguide and those of a conventional total internal reflection waveguide is …

A novel architecture of one-dimensional photonic crystal membrane (PCM) reflectors
embodying a heterostructure is proposed as a robust design aimed at a 3-D efficient …

Recent photonic device structures, including distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs), one-
dimensional (1-D) or two-dimensional (2-D) photonic crystals, and surface plasmon devices …

The single fundamental mode output power of photonic crystal vertical cavity lasers is
improved by varying sizes of oxide apertures and defect lasing apertures. A maximum output …

We demonstrate transverse mode control in vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs)
and 2-D VCSEL arrays. By etching a periodic arrangement of circular holes into the top …

We have demonstrated a guided-mode resonance filter (GMRF) whose properties are
tunable with laser illumination through the incorporation of a nonlinear dye. Laser …
