  • Abstract
    Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) have been successfully integrated by fluidic self-assembly (FSA) into 10 μm deep holes etched into an Si substrate. These 40×40×10 μm 3 devices were fully planarised and metallised after integration. The VCSELs operated pulsed at O.98 μm with a threshold current as low as 75 mA and a turn-on voltage of 2.9 V
