Abstract
Improving the directionality of surface radiation is an important issue to increase the output power and the differential quantum efficiency of grating-coupled surface-emitting distributed feedback lasers. We proposed a method to realize the high directionality of surface radiation. Surface second-order gratings are fabricated on the p-side of the epitaxial wafer to provide feedback and surface radiation. High contrast gratings arranged above the surface grating are used to reflect the upward-diffracted light. The adjustment of the thickness of the intermediate layer between the grating and the reflector can be used to phase the reflected light with the downward-diffracted light. The calculation results show that the directionality of this structure can reach 92.5% which meets the device requirements. This design provides a reference for surface-emitting DFB lasers with high performance.
