Abstract

A novel class of optoelectronic devices incorporate an interference filter. The filter includes at least two optical cavities (701, 702). Each of the cavities localizes at least one optical mode. The optical modes localized at two cavities are at resonance only at one or at a few discrete selective wavelengths. At resonance, the optical eigenmodes contain one mode having a zero intensity at a node position between the two cavities, where this position shifts as a function of the wavelength. A non-transparent element (720), which is preferably an absorbing element, a scatterer, or a reflector, is placed between two cavities. At a discrete selective wavelength, when the node of the optical mode matches with the non-transparent element, the filter is transparent for light. At other wavelengths, the filter is not transparent for light. This allows for the construction of various optoelectronic devices showing a strongly wavelength-selective operation. The optical cavities comprise at least three reflectors (711, 715, 712). If the device is an edge emitting LD (700), it comprises an active layer (707).
