H. Deng et al., NATIVE-OXIDE LATERALLY CONFINED WHISPERING-GALLERY MODE LASER WITH VERTICAL EMISSION, Applied physics letters, 69(21), 1996, pp. 3120-3122
Data are presented demonstrating whispering-gallery mode lasing in a d
iode with native-oxide lateral confinement and vertical emission. The
vertical emission is obtained from distributed Bragg reflectors that c
onfine the mode in the normal direction, and that results in a real wa
ve vector component normal to the crystal surface external to the cavi
ty. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
