Chaos-assisted nonresonant optical pumping of quadrupole-deformed microlasers
arXiv:physics/0603158 · doi:10.1063/1.2432298
Abstract
Efficient nonresonant optical pumping of a high-Q scar mode in a two-dimensional quadrupole-deformed microlaser has been demonstrated based on ray and wave chaos. Three-fold enhancement in the lasing power was achieved at a properly chosen pumping angle. The experimental result is consistent with ray tracing and wave overlap integral calculations.
