Abstract :
We report the results of our very large aperture, oxide-confined vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (OC-VCSELs). The apertures of the laser-emitting windows are 300 to 500 μM in diameter. P-type metal grid lines were also formed within the aperture for better current spreading. A maximum cw optical power of 42.7 mW was measured for a 500 μm aperture device.
