Unidirectional Lasing Emerging from Frozen Light in Non-Reciprocal Cavities (1309.7601v3)
Published 29 Sep 2013 in physics.optics
Abstract: We introduce a class of unidirectional lasing modes associated with the frozen mode regime of non-reciprocal slow-wave structures. Such asymmetric modes can only exist in cavities with broken time-reversal and space inversion symmetries. Their lasing frequency coincides with a spectral stationary inflection point of the underlying passive structure and is virtually independent of its size. These unidirectional lasers can be indispensable components of photonic integrated circuitry.
