Despite the importance and exciting progress of surface-emitting (SE) semiconductor lasers, we have limited choices of lasing wavelength even today. From an application viewpoint, it is desirable to have an architecture that can allow SE lasing in a wide spectral range, based on the need of applications. Herein, we demonstrate a path for SE lasers with lasing wavelength on demand by exploiting III-nitride nanowire optical cavities formed by low-temperature selective area epitaxy (SAE), combined with fine-tuning of substrate patterns and photonic bands.
