Abstract
Recently, we presented the idea of a single-element gas detector based on a VCSEL, in which the top mirror is realised as subwavelength grating (SWG). The presence of gas in the vicinity of the grating causes a change in its reflectivity, which leads to a change in the quality factor of the laser cavity. We investigate the possibility of a realisation of a single-element detector based on the SWG VCSEL, in which a Fano-resonance occurs in the SWG. We analyse the performance of such a detector based on the example of an antimonide VCSEL designed as an ethane detector.
