  • Abstract
    Continuous wave (CW) operation at room temperature of electrically pumped InGaAlAs/InP vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) at emission wavelengths as high as 2.3 /spl mu/m is demonstrated for the first time. Devices with 15 /spl mu/m active region diameter show a maximum output power of 0.75 mW at 20/spl deg/C and a maximum CW operating temperature of 45/spl deg/C.
