Thermal Properties of Post-Size Controlled 12-Fold Quasi-Photonic Crystal Microcavity for Electrically-Driving

Abstract

We fabricate 12-fold quasi-photonic crystal microcavity with size-controlled post for electrically-driven structure by fine-tuning wet-etching time. Improved thermal properties of microcavities with different post sizes are investigated both in finite-element method simulations and experiments. (c) 2009 Optical Society of America
