摘要: A laser module includes: a photonic crystal surface-emitting laser element; a collimating lens array for producing a parallel optical beam; a condenser lens for condensing the optical beam; and an optical fiber which receives the optical beam on one end and transmits the optical beam to the outside. In the collimating lens array, an aperture portion corresponding to a collimating lens allows passage of the optical beam with an energy of not less than 94.0% and not more than 99.5% with respect to 100% of the energy of the optical beam incident on the collimating lens array.

摘要: A two-dimensional photonic crystal including a plate-shaped base body in which modified refractive index areas differs from the base body are periodically arranged in a two-dimensional pattern; an active layer provided on one side of the two-dimensional photonic crystal; and first and second electrodes facing each other across the two-dimensional photonic crystal and the active layer, for supplying an electric current to the active layer. The modified refractive index areas are provided in the in-plane occupancy of areas in the base body increases, or the lattice constant for those areas decreases, in the direction from an outer edge toward the center of a current passage region where the electric current passes through the two-dimensional photonic crystal. A stable laser oscillation can be obtained when temperature distribution is lower at the outer edge and higher at the center of the current passage region is formed within the two-dimensional photonic crystal.

摘要: A surface emission laser formed of a group III nitride semiconductor includes a first conductivity type first clad layer; a first conductivity type first guide layer on the first clad layer; a light-emitting layer on the first guide layer; a second guide layer on the light-emitting layer; and a second conductivity type second clad layer on the second guide layer. The first or second guide layer internally includes voids periodically arranged at square lattice positions with two axes perpendicular to one another as arrangement directions in a surface parallel to the guide layer. The voids have a polygonal prism structure or an oval columnar structure with a long axis and a short axis perpendicular to the long axis in the parallel surface, and the long axis is inclined with respect to one axis among the arrangement directions of the voids.

摘要: A control circuit in this laser equipment drives a drive circuit of a photonic crystal laser element under a predetermined condition. It was found that a wavelength width of a laser beam to be output from the photonic crystal laser element is dependent on a standardized drive current k and a pulse width T, and had a predetermined relationship with these. By meeting this condition, a laser beam with a plurality of wavelengths can be controlled and output.
