Abstract
A novel concept for electrically pumped GaSb-based vertical cavity surface emitting lasers including a structured buried tunnel junction as current aperture is presented. Continuous-wave room temperature operation at 2.325 mum has been achieved. Devices with an aperture diameter of 9 mum show threshold currents of 3.3 mA, threshold voltages of 0.87 V and an output power of 87 muW.
