Poralization property of QWR and Lasing

Then we investigate the polarization properties of QWR and lasing.

The polarization of QWR emission was parallel almost toward the horizontal direction.
The shape of our QWR is a little bit rectangular shape, so we expect that the dipole moment of heavy hole is polarized toward horizontal direction.

On the other hand, the lasing image was polarized toward Side-QW direction.
The origin of lasing is the higher order subband transition.
So we expect that the wave function of higher order subband spreads inside the side-QW structures, and the polarization became parallel to the side-QW direction.
