Abstract

The uniform characteristics of an 8×8 individually addressable high power 850 nm vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) array are presented. Both growth and fabrication are considered in achieving 2-dimensionally array uniformity. The VCSEL wafer is grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy using an EMCORE reactor designed and calibrated for high growth uniformity. Thermal issues in 2-dimensional arrays are also important for simultaneous cw operation of multiple elements.
