摘要

摘要

En 中文
Liquid crystal (LC) distributed feedback (DFB) lasers hold significant potential for integrated photonics applications. However, limitations in wavelength spacing for wavelength switching, device size, and compatibility with other technologies have impeded advancements of the LC DFB laser in integration and responsiveness. Herein, we propose a thin-film multi-wavelength DFB laser array utilizing high- resolution patterned programmable nematic LC polymers, enabling rapid switching with high-resolution wavelength spacing between wavelength division multiplexing channels while maintaining a stable single longitudinal mode (SLM) for each laser. The underlying physical mechanism involves modulating the effective refractive index of the DFB laser by varying the LC molecules' orientation angles between adjacent regions of the LC grating to achieve wavelength modulation. Additionally, a specialized LC waveguide design connects the DFB lasers, facilitating wavelength modulation as well as straight-line and bending propagation of the laser. Furthermore, the laser array demonstrates a relatively low energy threshold, facilitating its applications in high-integration scenarios. (c) 2024 Optica Publishing Group.
