Low-threshold room-temperature continuous-wave optical lasing of single-crystalline perovskite in a distributed reflector microcavity.

ABSTRACT: Organic-inorganic halide perovskites have achieved remarkable success in various optoelectronic devices. A high-quality CH₃NH₃PbBr₃ single-crystalline thin film has been directly grown in a micrometer gap between a pair of distributed reflectors with over 99.9% reflectivity, which naturally form a vertical cavity surface-emitting laser device with a single mode or several modes. The single-crystalline perovskite has an exciton lifetime of 426 ns and evidence of the exciton-photon coupling is observed. At room temperature and under continuous-wave optical pumping conditions, this device lases at a threshold of 34 mW cm^-2 in the green gap. The extremely low lasing threshold suggests that polariton lasing may occur in the strongly confined optical cavity comprising the high-quality single-crystalline perovskite.

Room-temperature continuous-wave pumped exciton polariton condensation in a perovskite microcavity.

Project description:Microcavity exciton polaritons (polaritons) as part-light part-matter quasiparticles garner considerable attention for Bose-Einstein condensation at elevated temperatures. Recently, halide perovskites have emerged as promising room-temperature polaritonic platforms because of their large exciton binding energies and superior optical properties. However, currently, inducing room-temperature nonequilibrium polariton condensation in perovskite microcavities requires optical pulsed excitations with high excitation densities. Here, we demonstrate continuous-wave optically pumped polariton condensation with an exceptionally low threshold of ~0.53 W cm-2 and a narrow linewidth of ~0.5 meV. Polariton condensation is unambiguously demonstrated by characterizing the nonlinear behavior and coherence properties. We also unveil the trapping potential landscape strategy to facilitate polariton relaxation and accumulation. Our findings lay the foundation for the next-generation energy-efficient polaritonic devices operating at room temperature.

Room-temperature continuous-wave topological Dirac-vortex microcavity lasers on silicon.

Project description:Robust laser sources are a fundamental building block for contemporary information technologies. Originating from condensed-matter physics, the concept of topology has recently entered the realm of optics, offering fundamentally new design principles for lasers with enhanced robustness. In analogy to the well-known Majorana fermions in topological superconductors, Dirac-vortex states have recently been investigated in passive photonic systems and are now considered as a promising candidate for robust lasers. Here, we experimentally realize the topological Dirac-vortex microcavity lasers in InAs/InGaAs quantum-dot materials monolithically grown on a silicon substrate. We observe room-temperature continuous-wave linearly polarized vertical laser emission at a telecom wavelength. We confirm that the wavelength of the Dirac-vortex laser is topologically robust against variations in the cavity size, and its free spectral range defies the universal inverse scaling law with the cavity size. These lasers will play an important role in CMOS-compatible photonic and optoelectronic systems on a chip.

Room temperature plasmonic lasing in a continuous wave operation mode from an InGaN/GaN single nanorod with a low threshold.

Project description:It is crucial to fabricate nano photonic devices such as nanolasers in order to meet the requirements for the integration of photonic and electronic circuits on the nanometre scale. The great difficulty is to break down a bottleneck as a result of the diffraction limit of light. Nanolasers on a subwavelength scale could potentially be fabricated based on the principle of surface plasmon amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (SPASER). However, a number of technological challenges will have to be overcome in order to achieve a SPASER with a low threshold, allowing for a continuous wave (cw) operation at room temperature. We report a nano-SPASER with a record low threshold at room temperature, optically pumped by using a cw diode laser. Our nano-SPASER consists of a single InGaN/GaN nanorod on a thin SiO2 spacer layer on a silver film. The nanorod containing InGaN/GaN multi-quantum-wells is fabricated by means of a cost-effective post-growth fabrication approach. The geometry of the nanorod/dielectric spacer/plasmonic metal composite allows us to have accurate control of the surface plasmon coupling, offering an opportunity to determine the optimal thickness of the dielectric spacer. This approach will open up a route for further fabrication of electrically injected plasmonic lasers.

Room temperature continuous-wave green lasing from an InGaN microdisk on silicon.

Project description:Optically pumped green lasing with an ultra low threshold has been achieved using an InGaN/GaN based micro-disk with an undercut structure on silicon substrates. The micro-disks with a diameter of around 1 μm were fabricated by means of a combination of a cost-effective silica micro-sphere approach, dry-etching and subsequent chemical etching. The combination of these techniques both minimises the roughness of the sidewalls of the micro-disks and also produces excellent circular geometry. Utilizing this fabrication process, lasing has been achieved at room temperature under optical pumping from a continuous-wave laser diode. The threshold for lasing is as low as 1 kW/cm(2). Time-resolved micro photoluminescence (PL) and confocal PL measurements have been performed in order to further confirm the lasing action in whispering gallery modes and also investigate the excitonic recombination dynamics of the lasing.

Ultra-low threshold polariton lasing at room temperature in a GaN membrane microcavity with a zero-dimensional trap.

Project description:Polariton lasers are coherent light sources based on the condensation of exciton-polaritons in semiconductor microcavities, which occurs either in the kinetic or thermodynamic (Bose-Einstein) regime. Besides their fundamental interest, polariton lasers have the potential of extremely low operating thresholds. Here, we demonstrate ultra-low threshold polariton lasing at room temperature, using an all-dielectric, GaN membrane-based microcavity, with a spontaneously-formed zero-dimensional trap. The microcavity is fabricated using an innovative method, which involves photo-electrochemical etching of an InGaN sacrificial layer and allows for the incorporation of optimally-grown GaN active quantum wells inside a cavity with atomically-smooth surfaces. The resulting structure presents near-theoretical Q-factors and pronounced strong-coupling effects, with a record-high Rabi splitting of 64 meV at room-temperature. Polariton lasing is observed at threshold carrier densities 2.5 orders of magnitude lower than the exciton saturation density. Above threshold, angle-resolved emission spectra reveal an ordered pattern in k-space, attributed to polariton condensation at discrete levels of a single confinement site. This confinement mechanism along with the high material and optical quality of the microcavity, accounts for the enhanced performance of our polariton laser, and pave the way for further developments in the area of robust room temperature polaritonic devices.

Novel perovskite solar cell with Distributed Bragg Reflector.

Project description:This paper reports numerical modeling of perovskite solar cell which has been knotted with Distributed Bragg Reflector pairs to extract high energy efficiency. The geometry of the proposed cells is simulated with three different kinds of perovskite materials including CH3NH3PbI3, CH3NH3PbBr3, and CH3NH3SnI3. The toxic perovskite material based on Lead iodide and lead bromide appears to be more efficient as compared to non-toxic perovskite material. The executed simulated photovoltaic parameters with the highest efficient structure are open circuit voltage = 1.409 (V), short circuit current density = 24.09 mA/cm2, fill factor = 86.18%, and efficiency = 24.38%. Moreover, a comparison of the current study with different kinds of structures has been made and surprisingly our novel geometry holds enhanced performance parameters that are featured with back reflector pairs (Si/SiO2). The applied numerical approach and presented designing effort of geometry are beneficial to obtain results that have the potential to address problems with less efficient thin-film solar cells.

Helical Polariton Lasing from Topological Valleys in an Organic Crystalline Microcavity.

Project description:Topological photonics provides an important platform for the development of photonic devices with robust disorder-immune light transport and controllable helicity. Mixing photons with excitons (or polaritons) gives rise to nontrivial polaritonic bands with chiral modes, allowing the manipulation of helical lasers in strongly coupled light-matter systems. In this work, helical polariton lasing from topological valleys of an organic anisotropic microcrystalline cavity based on tailored local nontrivial band geometry is demonstrated. This polariton laser emits light of different helicity along different angular directions. The significantly enhanced chiral characteristics are achieved by the nonlinear relaxation process. Helical topological polariton lasers may provide a perfect platform for the exploration of novel topological phenomena that involve light-matter interaction and the development of polariton-based spintronic devices.

Ultralow Threshold Lasing from Carbon Dot-Ormosil Gel Hybrid-Based Planar Microcavity.

Project description:The absence of an ideal solid matrix with resistance to harsh conditions for carbon dots (CDs) and high transmittance in the visible/near infrared region is the bottleneck in CD applications. In this study, we show that a stable rigid structure can be formed between CDs and organically modified silicates (ormosil) gel when CDs are incorporated into ormosil gel hybrids as a solid matrix. A high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 63% is achieved at a 583 nm emission. Peak optical gain of the hybrids was found to be 67 cm-1 at peak wavelength. Ultralow threshold (~70 W/cm2) lasing can also be demonstrated from a planar microcavity by using CD-ormosil gel hybrids as a gain medium.

Four- and five-photon upconversion lasing from rare earth elements under continuous-wave pump and room temperature.

Project description:Benefited from abundant long-lived intermediate energy levels of rear earth elements, large anti-Stokes lasing can be realized by multi-photon upconversion processes, which does not demand rigorous phase match and ultrahigh pump power. Here, we have fabricated an Er-doped silica microsphere with an ultrahigh intrinsic quality factor of 1.2 × 108. By continuous-wave (CW) excitation at 1535 nm, four- and five-photon upconversion lasers are achieved simultaneously under room temperature, in which the lasing thresholds are estimated as 176 and 600 μW, respectively. Beside the ultralow thresholds, the microlaser also exhibits good stability of lasing intensity for practical applications. The four- and five-photon upconversion lasing from rare earth elements have not been separately demonstrated under CW pump and room temperature until this work. This demonstration provides a prospect to realizing high-performance short-wavelength laser by pumping low-energy photons.

Robust low threshold full-color upconversion lasing in rare-earth activated nanocrystal-in-glass microcavity.

Project description:Visible light microlasers are essential building blocks for integrated photonics. However, achieving low-threshold (μW), continuous-wave (CW) visible light lasing at room temperature (RT) has been a challenge because of the formidable requirement of population inversion at short wavelengths. Rare-earth (RE)-activated microcavities, featuring high-quality factor (Q) and small mode volume of whispering gallery modes, offer a great opportunity for achieving infrared-to-visible upconversion (UC) lasing. Here, we report that batch-produced nano-glass composite (GC) microspheres incorporating RE-doped fluoride nanocrystals show efficient UC emissions. These multi-phase composite microspheres exhibit a high Q value (≥105), comparable to that of conventional multi-component glass microspheres. The UC lasing with pure red, green, and blue (RGB) emissions are demonstrated based on a highly efficient tapered fiber-microsphere system. More importantly, the GC microspheres manifest reduced (by 45%) lasing threshold and enhanced (more than four times) slope efficiency. These characteristics, together with excellent long-term stability, suggest a promising solution to achieving highly robust, stand-alone, low-threshold, and versatile UC microlasers.
