    Abstract

    By replacing a conventional mirror with a Fano resonance in a photonic crystal laser a new type of nanolaser is realised. In this work , the properties of this Fano laser when exposed to optical feedback are studied using a generalizedversion of the well-known Lang-Kobayashi model in order to account for the Fano interference. It is demonstrated how inclusion of the Fano mirror drastically enhances the feedback stability of the laser, shifting the onset of coherence collapse by orders of magnitude in terms of the external reflectivity required. This is attributed to the dynamical filtering properties of the Fano mirror.
