Polarization switching in quantum-well vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers

Switching between linearly polarized states of slightly different optical frequencies with the same transversemode pattern is found, as the injection current is increased. Switchings found here for semiconductor rate-equation models incorporating a vector electric field, birefringence, and the α fac...

Sumario:Switching between linearly polarized states of slightly different optical frequencies with the same transversemode pattern is found, as the injection current is increased. Switchings found here for semiconductor rate-equation models incorporating a vector electric field, birefringence, and the α factor are similar to previously reported experimental results. © 1996 Optical Society of America.
