Abstract

Vertical cavity surface emitting semiconductor lasers (VCSEL) have many applications in information technology, particularly communications and data storage. VCSELs using oxide confinement have generally low lasing thresholds, high efficiencies and excellent electrical properties. The transverse mode properties can be studied in detail. Recent measurements of transverse modes in oxide confined AlGaAs VCSELs of aperture sizes ranging from 1 to 20 μm square are presented.
