Abstract :
The fabrication process for circular buried-heterostructure surface-emitting lasers has been improved to increase the uniformity of the active region diameter. Circular mesas of ≃8 μm diameter can now be consistently prepared and low-threshold surface-emitting lasers (30-60 mA at room temperature pulsed conditions) are obtained
