Lasing Dynamics of a Novel Silicon Photonic Crystal Cavity

摘要：

In this paper we proposed novel silicon laser design based on the dispersion engineered photonic crystals. With the unique self-collimation property, we design an optical cavity with a Q factor of 2000.The strong mode confinement in the low index active material offers an opportunity to realize a lasing mechanism. To investigate the lasing dynamics we introduce the rate equations of atomic system into the effectromagnetic polarization. With these auxiliary differential equations we solve the time evolutions of the effectromagnetic waves and atomic populations by using the FDTD method.
