Abstract
In this paper, we examine several of the properties of VCSELs that enhance their manufacturability, and we describe how those characteristics may be exploited in the manufacturing environment. The ability to test the lasers while still in wafer form, the enhanced reliability, and the ability to package the laser in traditional LED package styles are among the most significant points enabling high-volume VCSEL manufacture
