Photonic Crystal Circular Defect (CirD) Laser

We describe the design of photonic crystal circular defect (CirD) lasers to construct a compact optical module with a wavelength division multiplexing function for the application of inter-chip or intra-chip optical interconnects. Subsequently, we investigated the characteristics of CirD lasers incl...
