摘要
Modifications to the epitaxial growth of Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) material have recently led to improved characteristics. By offsetting the quantum-well gain peak from the cavity mode, and implementing lower barrier p-type Al0.67Ga0.33As/GaAs DBR mirrors with parabolic interface gradings, better high-temperature operation and lower voltages have been achieved. These effects combine to yield a peak wall plug efficiency of 17.3% for room temperature, CW operation.
