Abstract

Room temperature pulsed operation of InGaAsP (1.3 μm)/InP vertical cavity surface emitting lasers has been achieved with threshold current as low as 50 mA using a constricted-mesa structure with dielectric mirrors. Above room temperature operation has also been realized for the first time with maximum operation temperature of 66°C. Pulsed and continuous-wave threshold currents at 77 K are 1.5 and 3.9 mA, respectively. All of these threshold currents are the lowest ever reported for InGaAsP/InP surface emitting lasers at these temperatures. © 1991 IEEE
