Abstract
A strongly-guided one-dimensional (1-D) waveguide called a photonic wi re has high spontaneous emission coupling efficiency, enabling one to realize low-threshold lasers. Combined with the use of 1-D photonic ba ndgap structures consisting of arrays of holes etched within the photo nic wire, novel microcavity lasers can be realized, We report the nano fabrication of a photonic bandgap structure for 1.5 mu m wavelength al ong a InGaAsP photonic wire, and discuss numerical simulations for its electrodynamics.
