Abstract

A two-dimensional vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser array, with each element emitting at different wavelengths, was fabricated by selective area growth (SAG) metallorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). Two-dimensional steady-state finite-difference calculation was used to model the flux of materials on the masked and exposed areas of an annular-ring array pattern. The thickness and composition enhancements of perfectly-selectively grown InGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures measured from thickness profiler and cathodoluminescence measurements are in excellent agreement with the modeled results.
