Abstract

In this paper, we report the characteristics of the continuous wave laser output of the $lima{\varsigma}on$-shaped InGaAsP microcavity laser pumped by current injection. In order to find the directions of emission far-field patterns are measureed by rotating an optical fiber around the microcavity. We observe high directionality of the $lima{\varsigma}on$-shaped microcavity laser. For the analysis of lasing properties we also investigate its polarization and spectrum using the Glan-Thompson polarizer and spectrum analyzer.
