Abstract
We have obtained low temperature continuous operation of vertical-cavi ty surface-emitting lasers with wavelength below 700 nm. For heat sink temperatures below - 25-degrees-C, threshold currents less than 4 mA and optical power of several milliwatts can be obtained. The possibili ty of achieving efficient room temperature continuous operation is dis cussed.
