摘要: Provided is a two-dimensional photonic-crystal laser capable of scanning with a laser beam and emitting the laser beam without the laser beam being attenuated by an electrode. A two-dimensional photonic-crystal laser 1 formed by sandwiching, between a first electrode 181 and a second electrode 182, a layered body 10 including an active layer 13 and a two-dimensional photonic-crystal layer 15 in which modified refractive index areas 152 having a refractive index different from a refractive index of a plate-shaped base body 151 are periodically arranged two-dimensionally on the base body 151. The first electrode 181 is divided into a plurality of partial electrodes 1811, and the second electrode 182 is a frame-shaped electrode including a frame-shaped portion 1821 made of a conductor, the second electrode 182 having a window portion 1822 which is a space inside the frame-shaped portion 1821 being arranged to face a region enclosing a plurality of the partial electrodes 1811. A lens 19 provided on the side opposite to the layered body 10 of the second electrode 182 in a manner covering the entire window portion 1822 is included.

摘要: A photonic crystal surface-emitting laser includes a light emitting region from which light is emitted in a direction crossing an in-plane direction, and a current blocking region that is adjacent to the light emitting region in the in-plane direction and in which current is less likely to flow than in the light emitting region. The light emitting region and the current blocking region each include a photonic crystal layer. The photonic crystal layer has a first region and second regions periodically arranged in the in-plane direction in the first region. A refractive index of each of the second regions is different from a refractive index of the first region. The light emitting region includes a first semiconductor layer having a first conductivity type, an active layer having an optical gain, and a second semiconductor layer having a second conductivity type. The first semiconductor layer, the active layer, and the second semiconductor layer are sequentially stacked on top of one another in an emission direction of the light.
