  • Abstract
    Batch-processed, totally planar, vertical-cavity top surface emitting GaAs/AlGaAs laser arrays are reported. Arrays having 64*1 elements are characterised and shown to have uniform room-temperature continuous-wave operating characteristics for threshold current approximately=2.1+or-0.1 mA, wavelength approximately=849.4+or-0.8 nm, and output power approximately=0.5+or-0.1 mW.
