Abstract :
Diffraction and distributed nature of quarter-wave mirrors play a central role in forming transverse-modes of gain-apertured vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs). This paper reviews an integral-equation approach to determining the modes and associated propagation constants in such resonators.
