Y. Liu et al., VERTICAL-CAVITY SURFACE-EMITTING LASER FABRICATED BY 2 IMPLANTATIONS USING TUNGSTEN WIRES AS MASK, Optical and quantum electronics, 28(12), 1996, pp. 1781-1785
The design and fabrication of a room-temperature continuous wave (cw)
vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is reported. The device was fab
ricated by two deep H+ implantations using parallel tungsten wires as
the resist mask. The direction of the mask in the first implantation i
s perpendicular to that in the second. The fabrication process is the
simplest ever reported for vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser fabr
ication. A lowest threshold current of 17 mA and a maximum tight outpu
t power of 4 mW were obtained.
