ABSTRACT
A microcavity laser with linear polarization finds practical applications in metrology and biomedical imaging. Through a pulsed light excitation, the polarization characteristics of amplified spontaneous emissions (ASEs) from ten-period ZnO/Zn0.8Mg0.2O multiple quantum wells (MQWs) on a C-Plane sapphire substrate were investigated at room temperature. Unlike unpolarized spontaneous emissions, with 35 meV of energy differences between the C and AB bands, the ASE of MQWs revealed transverse-electric (TE) polarization under the edge emission configuration. The excited ASE from the surface normal of the polar ZnO/Zn0.8Mg0.2O MQWs with hexagonal symmetry revealed linear polarization under the pump of the stripe line through the focusing by using a cylindrical lens. The polarization direction of ASE is independent of the pump polarization but always perpendicular to the pump stripe, even if the cylindrical lens is rotated 90 degrees because of the gain-guiding effect.
