In this study, we experimentally demonstrate the difference between a ridge polariton laser and a conventional edge-emitting ridge laser operating under electron-hole population inversion. We find that the laser effect can be achieved in a ridge polariton laser with just 15% of the cavity length used as an exciton reservoir, whereas this would not be possible in a conventional ridge laser. We also observe that the polaritonic gain in the ridge polariton laser is about 10 times larger than that in equivalent GaN lasers.
We experimentally demonstrate the difference between a ridge polariton laser and a conventional edgeemitting ridge laser operating under electron-hole population inversion. The horizontal laser cavities are 20-60-mu m-long GaN etched-ridge structures with vertical Bragg reflectors. We investigate the laser threshold under optical pumping and assess quantitatively the effect of a varying optically pumped length. The laser effect is achieved for an exciton reservoir length of just 15% of the cavity length, which would not be possible in a conventional ridge laser, with an inversion-less polaritonic gain about 10 times larger than in equivalent GaN lasers. This combination of a very short injection section and a strong gain paves the way for compact microlasers with nonlinear functionalities for integrated photonics.
