contents Quasi-bound states in the continuum (q-BICs) enable low-threshold lasing through high-Q cavity modes, yet their polarization tunability remains constrained by nanostructure-imposed cavity symmetries. By engineering a microcavity with an optimized duty cycle (0.34), we demonstrate a polarization-switchable distributed feedback (DFB) laser with controlled emission transitions between dual off-Γ q-BIC lasing and single Γ-point Bragg resonance (BR) lasing through switching pump polarization. The switching mechanism shows unprecedented robustness in varying waveguide thickness and photonic crystal period of DFB structures. Our findings extend the capabilities of DFB lasers beyond their conventional limits, opening opportunities for nanophotonics, classical and quantum optics applications.
