摘要: To obtain both a high output power and a single mode oscillation of a semiconductor laser. The semiconductor laser includes first and second regions. In the first region, a diffraction pattern having a high reflectance with respect to a light beam having a Bragg wavelength is arranged. The second region includes: a π-shift region with a phase shifting by π from a phase of the first region, a secondary λ/4 shift portion, an in-phase region having the same phase as that of the first region, and the secondary λ/4 shift portion are arranged toward a second end portion in the stated order; and the π-shift region. The π-shift region is longer than the in-phase region, a length of the first region is larger than a difference between the π-shift region and the in-phase region, and facets on both sides each have a low-reflection facet coating film formed thereon.

摘要: A laser device comprises a gain chip that emits light, and a photonics chip optically coupled to the gain chip. The photonics chip comprises a waveguide platform including an input waveguide optically coupled to the gain chip. The input waveguide optical communicates with a cascaded arrangement of waveguide grating structures on the waveguide platform. The grating structures comprise a first grating structure that produces a single resonance frequency within a stopband, and a second grating structure in optical communication with the first grating structure. The second grating structure diffracts a narrowband resonance, overlapping with the stopband of the first grating structure, back toward the gain chip, while passing any light outside of the stopband of the first grating structure out of the waveguide platform. The grating structures cooperate to yield a single resonance frequency that feeds back into the gain chip to produce a self-injection lock for the laser device.

The second grating region is located at a middle area of the grating layer, while the first grating region is located in an outer peripheral area of the grating layer. Each of the first and second grating regions comprises a plurality of micro-grating structures. The grating period of the micro-grating structures in the first grating region is in accordance with the following mathematical formula:

in addition, the grating period of the micro-grating structures in the second grating region is in accordance with the following mathematical formula:

Wherein ∧ is the length of grating period, λ is the wavelength of the laser light, neff is the equivalent refractive index of semiconductor waveguide, m=1, and o=2. The first grating region is a first-order grating region, and the second grating region is a second-order grating region, so as to form a hybrid grating structure in the grating layer. The surface emitting laser emits laser light perpendicularly from a light-emitting surface defined by the second grating region.
