Abstract

Surface plasmon waves are the basis for a high performance 17 μm wavelength laser where light is guided at the interface between the top metal contact and the underlying semiconductor, dramatically reducing the required thicknesses. The concept of distributed feedback (DFB)³ for surface plasmon propagation is introduced by developing a periodic modulation of the penetration depth in a two metal grating. Lasing is achieved on a single longitudinal mode with high purity and temperature tuning rates of approx. 1 nm/K.
