    摘要: Provided are an etching method for a multi-layered structure of semiconductors in groups III-V and a method of manufacturing a VCSEL using the etching method. According to the etching method, a stacked structure including a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer is exposed to a plasma of a mixture consisting of Cl2, Ar, CH4, and H2 to etch the stacked structure, so that a mirror layer of the VCSEL is formed. The first semiconductor layer is formed of a semiconductor in groups III-V and the second semiconductor layer is formed of a semiconductor in groups III-V, other than the semiconductor of the first semiconductor layer. At least part of a lower mirror layer, a lower electrode layer, an optical gain layer, an upper electrode layer, and an upper mirror layer is etched using one time of an etching process, so that a clean and smooth etched surface is obtained.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of fabricating vertical-cavity surface emitting lasers being watched as a light source for long wavelength communication. The present invention includes forming a layer having a high resistance near the surface by implanting heavy ions such as silicon (Si), so that the minimum current injection diameter is made very smaller unlike implantation of a proton. Further, the present invention includes regrowing crystal so that current can flow the epi surface in parallel to significantly reduce the resistance up to the current injection part formed by silicon (Si) ions. Therefore, the present invention can not only effectively reduce the current injection diameter but also significantly reduce the resistance of a device to reduce generation of a heat. Further, the present invention can further improve dispersion of a heat using InP upon regrowth and thus improve the entire performance of the device.
