Abstract
Modulating lasing wavelength flexibly and repeatedly on a single rod is essential to the practical applications of micro/nanorod lasers. In this paper, a structure that decouples the gain medium and optical cavity is proposed, where the corresponding mechanism for the lasing wavelength shift is explained. Based on the above structure, one kind of wavelength continuously variable lasers is achieved on a single GaN/InGaN core-shell microrod without modifying the geometry of the resonant cavity or cutting the microrod. By using this method, lasing wavelength can be modulated from 372 to 408 nm flexibly and repeatedly in a 10 μm facilely synthesized microrod. This approach demonstrates a big application potential in numerous fields consisting of optical telecommunication and environmental monitoring.
