摘要:
A method of forming a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (100, 600, 900) includes process steps for self-aligning the p-type ohmic contact (118, 518, 932), an oxide current aperture (122, 926a), and a central puck of re-phase material (560a, 936) around the optical axis of the laser.
摘要:
Selectively oxidized vertical cavity lasers emitting at about 1290 nm using InGaAsN quantum wells that operate continuous wave below, at and above room temperature are reported. The lasers employ a semi-insulating GaAs substrate for reduced capacitance, high quality, low resistivity AlGaAs DBR mirror structures, and a strained active region based on InGaAsN. In addition, the design of the VCSEL reduces free carrier absorption of 1.3 μm light in the p-type materials by placing relatively higher p-type dopant concentrations near standing wave nulls.
摘要:
An optoelectronic device having one or more DBR mirrors having a low voltage drop across the mirror layers and a high reflectivity for emission at a nominal wavelength of 1300 nm below, at and above room temperature. The low resistance DBR may be used as a top output mirror of a tunnel junction VCSEL that reduces resistance and optical losses by reducing the amount of p-type material within the device.
摘要:
A low thermal impedance optoelectronic device includes an optical cavity adjacent a low thermal impedance DBR that provides improved heat dissipation and temperature performance. The thermal impedance of the DBR may be reduced by increasing the relative or absolute thickness of a layer of high thermal conductivity material relative to a layer of low thermal conductivity material for at least a portion of the mirror periods. The thermal impedance may also be reduced by increasing the distance between phonon scattering surfaces by increasing the thickness of the high thermal conductivity layer, the low thermal conductivity layer or both.
