Abstract :
We investigate theoretically the effect of two-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) defect waveguide parameters embedded into vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) on static operation of PC-VCSEL like spatial hole burning (SHB) and temperature of active region. In structures with larger pitch of PC holes SHB occurs dramatically and temperature increases in active region. In large hole diameter to pitch ratio, SHB has a little effect and temperature is decreased in active region.
