Analysis and Control of Optical Modes in VCSELs and VCSEL-Arrays

Elodie Lamothe

In this thesis, we studied the modal structure and the polarization of the optical field emitted by vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) emitting in the short- and long-wavelength domains (0.9-1.3μm). Our study concerns two types of components: ...

Optical injection locking of polarization modes and spatial modes in single-aperture VCSELs and VCSEL arrays emitting at 1.3 mu m

Elyahou Kapon, Alexei Sirbu, Vladimir Iakovlev, Grigore Suruceanu, Alexandru Mereuta, Andrei Caliman, Elodie Lamothe, Christopher Michael Long

We report the injection locking of specific spatial modes and polarization modes of 1.3 mu m wavelength vertical surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) in single-aperture devices and phase-coupled arrays. The optical injection is realized using a master laser (M ...

Polarization modes in long-wavelength Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) and VCSEL-arrays

Elyahou Kapon, Alexei Sirbu, Vladimir Iakovlev, Alexandru Mereuta, Andrei Caliman, Elodie Lamothe, Lukas Mutter

Spatial transverse modes and polarization states are experimentally studied in single vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and phased-locked VCSEL arrays emitting at 1.3 mu m wavelength. Analysis of the polarization-resolved near fields, far fi ...

Optical forces in coupled plasmonic nanosystems: Near field and far field interaction regimes

Olivier Martin, Elodie Lamothe

We study the forces generated by an electromagnetic field on two coupled gold nanowires at the vicinity of the plasmon resonance wavelength. Two different regimes are observed, depending on the separation distance d between the wires. In the near field cou ...

Micro-optics for optical trapping in microfluidics - art. no. 66440P

René Salathé, Johann Rohner, Fabrice Merenda, Jean-Marc Fournier, Elodie Lamothe

Micro-optical compo nents offer several possibilities for creating large matrices of optical traps, either when working on inverted microscopes, or by directly integrating miniaturized optical components at the level of a micro-fluidic chip. In thisarticle ...
