Abstract

We report experimental observation of lasing on surface states, in the form of standing waves at the termination of a defect-free photonic crystal on top of vertical-cavity surface-emission lasers. Direct images of lasing modes at the truncated periodic potential, along one side of a square lattice, are demonstrated by collecting near-field radiation patterns, as well as in numerical simulations. Our results provide a step toward realizing surface and edge states in optical cavities.
