Stable dual-mode semiconductor lasers can be applied for the photonic generation of microwave and terahertz

waves. In this paper, the mode characteristics of a variable curvature microresonator are investigated by a two-

dimensional finite element method for realizing stable dual-mode lasing. The microresonator features a

smooth boundary and the same symmetry as a square resonator. A small variable-curvature microresonator with

a radius of 4 μm can support the fundamental four-bounce mode and the circular-like mode simultaneously, with

quality factors up to the order of 10

and 10

, respectively. The dual modes in the phase space of the Poincaré

surface of sections distribute far from each other and can maintain enough stability for dual-mode lasing.

Furthermore, the refractive index and waveguide can modulate the dual-mode wavelength difference and quality

factors efficiently thanks to the spatially separated fields of these two modes.

1. INTRODUCTION

Whispering-gallery mode (WGM) microcavities, which con-

fine light by total internal reflection with the advantages of high

quality (Q) factors and small mode volumes, have attracted

great attention in the research of fundamental physics and

optoelectronics applications [1]. Circular microresonators in

different geometries were successfully used in the demonstra-

tion of ultralow-threshold microlasers, but the rotational sym -

metry causes a significant difficulty to efficiently collect the

emission light from the microlasers. Deformed microresonators

such as spiral [2], limaçon [3], quadrupole [4], flattened quad-

rupole [5], and ellipse-shaped [6] have been proposed to break

rotational symmetry for realizing directional emission. By di-

rectly connecting an output waveguide to the microresonators,

directional emission could also be realized [7–9]. Recently,

circular-side polygonal microresonators were also proposed and

demonstrated for Q factor control and mode selection [10,11].

Besides the directional emission and Q factor control, dual-

wavelength laser sources that could be used for microwave or

terahertz generation have also attracted great attention. There

are several ways of producing dual lasing sources, such as

Fabry–Perot (FP) cavities integrated by Y junction [12], dual-

section vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers [13,14], dual-

section distributed feedback (DFB) lasers [15], fiber lasers

based on fiber Bragg gratings [16,17], and square microcavity

lasers [10,18]. In this paper, we propose and numerically in-

vestigate a deformed optical variable curvature microresonator

(VCM) with a mixture shape of microsquare and microdisk

resonators for stable dual-mode lasing. This VCM can support

two types of high Q factor modes, the four-bounce mode and

the circular-like mode. By carefully modifying perimeter distri-

bution and waveguide position, stable dual-mode lasing with

directional emission can be achieved according to the numerical

simulation results.

This paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, the mode

characteristics of the VCM are simulated based on two-

dimensional (2D) finite element method (FEM). A ray dynam-

ics analysis is also performed for the high Q factor modes. In

Section 3, dual-mode stability is analyzed for the VCM and

circular and square microresonators theoretically. The modula-

tion of the mode wavelengths and quality factors, based on

graphic electrode and waveguide positions, are investigated nu-

merically. Finally, the summary is given in Section 4.

2. MODE CHARACTERISTICS

The schematic diagram of a 2D VCM is given in Fig. 1. There

are four zero-curvature points distributed in the midpoints of

square edge, and the connecting arcs between these points have

a linear variable curvature. The curvature of the arc in the first

quadrant can be expressed as

where ρ, r, and θ are the curvature, polar radius, and angle,

respectively, and k is a parameter showing the changing speed

of curvature along the boundary. The microresonator size is

determined by the parameter d, which is half the distance be-

tween the two opposite zero-cur vature points. The curvature in

the other quadrants is a periodic function as ρθ − π∕2ρθ.

The VCM in different sizes could be proved similar to each

other with the product of maximum curvature ρ

and VCM

size d equaling 19.82. The deformation degree ε is defined as

, which is a fixed number of 0.065 for

the VCM. With a continuous variation of the curvature along

the boundary, the boundary is smooth and second-order differ-

entiable, leading to the emergence of the circular-like mode de-

spite large deformation compared with the circular resonator.

The same symmetry properties between the VCM and

microsquare resonators also herald the same periodic orbits

of optical rays.

The mode characteristics of the VCM are simulated by 2D

FEM (COMSOL Multiphysics 5.0). The refractive indices of

the resonator and outside media are set to 3.2 and 1.54, respec-

tively, for the InP-based VCM and surrounded bisbenzo

cyclobutene. The microresonator size is 4 μm. A perfect

matched layer absorbing boundary with a width of 0.5 μm

is used to terminate the simulation area. The intensity spectrum

for TE modes with a wavelength resolution of 0.08 nm is

obtained and plotted in Fig. 2(a). The spectrum shows that

there are three sets of longitudinal modes, ranging from

1.50 to 1.59 μm. The four kinds of high-Q modes marked

by circles, squares, five-pointed stars, and prisms represent

the circular-like mode, fundamental four-bounce mode,

first-order four-bounce mode, and high-order hybrid mode,

respectively, with the field distributions of jH

j as presented

in Figs. 2(b)–2(e). The circular-like modes have relatively

higher Q factors up to 4.34 × 10

with the field distributing

mostly along the boundary, similar to the WGMs in a circular

microresonator. The reflection positions of the four-bounce

modes concentrate on four zero-curvature points with reflec-

tion angles of around 45°. The photons of the four-bounce

modes are more likely to reach leaky regions, leading to

lower-mode Q factors in the order of 10

. The longitudinal

mode intervals around 1.55 μm are 29 and 33 nm for

the circular-like modes and the fundamental four-bounce

modes, respectively. The first-order four-bounce modes and

high-order hybrid modes have mode Q factors in the order

of 10

. The details of mode wavelengths and Q factors are

summarized in Table 1.

The VCM could be regarded as a mixture of circular and

square shapes. For the comparison between these three types
