Abstract
An analytical approach is developed and applied to investigate the thermal properties of 1.55 mu m microresonator vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) mounted substrate-down. The results indicate that difficulties with obtaining the CW operation of long-wavelength VCSELs are primarily associated with intrinsic properties (such as low T0) rather than with their thermal resistance.
