Polarization switching and injection locking in 1550nm VCSELs subject to parallel optical injection

Polarization switching in a long-wavelength VCSEL under parallel optical injection is analyzed in a theoretical and experimental way. We report a novel state in which injection locking of the parallel polarization and excitation of the free-running orthogonal polarization of the VCSEL are simultaneo...

Summary:Polarization switching in a long-wavelength VCSEL under parallel optical injection is analyzed in a theoretical and experimental way. We report a novel state in which injection locking of the parallel polarization and excitation of the free-running orthogonal polarization of the VCSEL are simultaneously obtained.
