Abstract
We report the realization of a monolithic vertical-cavity, surface emitting micro-optical parametric conversion nanostructure, triply resonant with the parametric frequencies, allowing parametric oscillation with ultra-low pump power threshold. The photonic phase-space naturally provides triple resonance for the parametric frequencies, together with built-in cavity phase matching for the pump wave at normal incidence. Parametric oscillation is observed in both the strong and weak exciton-photon coupling regime, allowing high operating temperature. Signal and idler beams can be collected at 0â or at finite angles. The OPO threshold is low enough to envisage the realization of an all-semiconductor electrically-pumped micro-parametric oscillator.
