High power GaSb-based distributed feedback laser with laterally coupled dielectric gratings at 1.95 µ m

Le résumé fourni par la source

Traditional distributed feedback (DFB) or distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) lasers typically have commonly employed buried gratings as frequency-selective optical feedback mechanisms. However, the fabrication of such gratings often requires regrowth processes, which introduce significant technical challenges, particularly for material systems such as GaAs and GaSb. While metal gratings have been implemented in GaSb-based lasers, they incur additional absorption losses, thereby constraining the device's efficiency and achievable output power. Herein, we introduce a laterally coupled dielectric Bragg grating structure, which enables highly controllable, deterministic, and stable coupling between the grating and the optical mode. Our device demonstrates a continuous-wave output power of 47.02 mW at room temperature, exhibiting stable single-mode operation from 300 to 1000 mA and a maximum side mode suppression ratio of 46.7 dB. These results underscore the innovative lateral coupled dielectric grating as a feasible and technologically superior approach for fabricating DFB and DBR lasers, which hold universal applicability across different material platforms and wavelength bands.
