Popis: We present a novel semi-analytical method utilising modal index analysis, for modelling the field resonances of photonic crystal surface emitting lasers (PCSELs). This method shows very good agreement with other modelling techniques in terms of mode calculations, with the added advantages of computational simplicity, the calculation of threshold gain, and rapid analysis of finite structures. We are able to model the effect of external lateral feedback and simulations indicate that the near-field peak can be electronically displaced and the threshold as well as the frequency can be controlled through external in-plane feedback, paving the way to dynamic control of PCSELs.
