Random lasing is an intriguing phenomenon occurring in disordered structures with optical gain. In such lasers, the scattering of light provides the necessary feedback for lasing action. Because of the light scattering, the random lasing…
Semiclassical equations of lasing dynamics are re-derived for a lasing medium in a cavity with a spatially non-uniform dielectric constant. It is shown that the non-uniformity causes a radiative coupling between modes of the empty cavity.…
We consider a laser-driven and dissipative system of two coupled cavities with Jaynes-Cummings nonlinearity. In particular, we investigate both incoherent and coherent laser driving, corresponding to different experimental situations. We…
We present a numerical study of the pulses displayed by a semiconductor laser with optical feedback in the short cavity regime, such that the external cavity round trip time is smaller than the laser relaxation oscillation period. For…
Control over spontaneous emission rate is important for improving efficiency in different semiconductor applications including lasers, LEDs and photovoltaics. Usually, an emitter should be placed inside the cavity to increase spontaneous…
Luminescence as a mechanism for terahertz emission from femtosecond laser-induced plasmas is studied. By using a fully microscopic theory, Coulomb scattering between electrons and ions is shown to lead to luminescence even for a spatially…
We propose and investigate a scheme for the steady-state emission of quantum-correlated, telecom-band light from a single multilevel atom. By appropriately tuning the frequency of a pair of lasers, a two-photon transition is continually…
The origin of the emission within the optical mode of a coupled quantum dot-micropillar system is investigated. Time-resolved photoluminescence is performed on a large number of deterministically coupled devices in a wide range of…
A system very similar to a dielectric barrier discharge, but with a simple stationary DC voltage, can be realized by sandwiching a gas discharge and a high-ohmic semiconductor layer between two planar electrodes. In experiments this system…
We report an experimental observation of polaritonic optical bistability of the laser emission in a planar semiconductor microcavity with a $100\AA$ GaAs single quantum well in the strong-coupling regime. The bistability curves show…
Achieving single-mode operation and highly directional (preferably unidirectional) in-plane light output from whispering-gallery (WG) mode semiconductor microdisk resonators without seriously degrading the mode Q-factor challenges designers…
We present detailed experimental and numerical studies of random lasing in weakly scattering systems. The interference of scattered light, which is weak in the passive systems, is greatly enhanced in the presence of high gain, providing…
Self-mode-locking has become an emerging path to the generation of ultrashort pulses with vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting lasers. In our work, a strong Kerr nonlinearity that is so far assumed to give rise to mode-locked operation…
We miniaturize a vertically-coupled in-plane whispering gallery mode cavity incorporating a quantum cascade gain medium, aiming to realize the mid-infrared counterpart to the vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL). Building on…
Pulse formation in passively mode locked lasers is often accompanied with dispersive waves that form of spectral sidebands due to spatial inhomogoneities in the laser cavity. Here we present an explicit calculation of the amplitude,…
We explore the use of mm-wave emission line ratios to trace molecular gas density when observations integrate over a wide range of volume densities within a single telescope beam. For observations targeting external galaxies, this case is…
Recent experimental and theoretical investigations on asymmetric field emission induced by weak femtosecond laser pulses and also its emission mechanisms are briefly reviewed. The emission mechanisms are discussed further for a wider range…
We report a significant advancement in ultra low power light-by-light phase modulation using open semiconductor microcavities in the strong light-matter coupling regime. We achieve cross-phase modulation of up to 247$\pm$17 mrad per…
Dynamics of external cavity semiconductor lasers is known to be a complex and uncontrollable phenomenon. Due to the lack of experimental studies on the nature of the external cavity semiconductor lasers, there is a need to theoretically…
Recent experiments on similarly shaped polymer micro-cavity lasers show a dramatic difference in the far-field emission patterns. We show for different deformations of the ellipse, quadrupole and hexadecapole that the large differences in…
