Photonic crystal nanolasers as optical frequency standards

Abstract

Using of the nanolasers with the system of radiation frequency stabilization for development of the nano-size order optical frequency standards is considered in this paper. A number of nanolaser designs, their radiation processes and frequency stabilization are examined. The quantum dot nanolaser model with the wavelength of λ = 633 nm is developed. Radiation frequency stabilization is performed with the help of the iodine molecules placed into the photonic crystal cell having the T-shaped defect.
