Abstract

The fabrication and optical properties of an erbium-doped gallium phosphide microdisk resonator pumped by a Ti-sapphire laser at 980 nm were investigated. Enhanced Er3+ intra-4f-shell photoluminescence was observed in the microdisk resonator compared to a thin film, and is attributed to a microcavity effect. At low pumping power intensity, the photoluminescence from erbium-doped gallium phosphide microdisks is an order of magnitude more intense than that from a thin film sample.
