Microcavity lasers made of deformed dielectric disk resonators such as the Limaçon-shaped cavity have attracted a lot of interest due to directional light emission from high quality factor modes. Here we investigate them in various array configurations of Limaçon-shaped microcavities and show that the directional emission is enhanced drastically. At the same time, emission into side peaks is reduced. Furthermore, we study the coupling mechanisms between Limaçon-resonators arranged in different array configurations. We show that far-field properties depend strongly on the coupling between the resonators in the array that is mostly determined by the inter-cavity distance as well as geometric imperfections.
