A 2D photonic crystal surface-emitting laser using a triangular lattice is developed, and current-injected lasing oscillation is demonstrated. From consideration of the Bragg diffraction condition in the 2D triangular-lattice structure, it is shown that the 2D coupling phenomenon occurs in the structure. As a result of the 2D periodicity of the structure, the longitudinal mode and lateral mode can be controlled, and stable single-mode oscillation is possible over a large 2D area. The lasing mode of the structure is analyzed by calculating the photonic band diagram by the 2D plane-wave expansion method, and we show that four band edges at which the lasing oscillation can occur exist at the Γ point. Current-injected lasing oscillation is successfully demonstrated at room temperature under pulsed conditions. The threshold current density is 3.2kA/cm^2 and the lasing wavelength is 1.285μm. From the near-field and far-field patterns, it is shown that large-area 2D (diameter 480μm) lasing oscillation occurs in the device and the divergence angle is very narrow (less than 1.8゜). We also demonstrate the correspondence between the measured lasing wavelengths and calculated band diagram by comparing the polarization characteristics with the calculated distribution of the electromagnetic field. The results indicate that 2D coherent lasing oscillation occurs due to the multi-directional coupling effect in the 2D photonic crystal. Finally, we show that the polarization patterns of the lasers can be controlled by introducing artificial lattice defects from the theoretical calculation.
