We report our results on InGaNAs/GaAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) in the 1.3 mu m range. The epitaxial structures were grown on (10 0) GaAs substrates by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) or molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The nitrogen composition of the InGa(N)As/GaAs quantum-well (QW) active region is 0-0.02. The long-wavelength (up to 1.3 mu m) room-temperature continuous-wave (RT CW) lasing operation was achieved for MBE- and MOCVD-grown VCSELs. For MOCVD-grown devices with n- and p-doped distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs), a maximum optical output power of 0.74 mW was measured for In(0.36)Ga(0.64)N(0.006)AS(0.994)/GaAs VCSELs. A very low J(th) of 2.55 kA cm(-2) was obtained for the InGaNAs/GaAs VCSELs. The MBE-grown devices were made with an intracavity structure. Top-emitting multi-mode 1.3 mu m In0.35Ga0.65N0.02As0.98/GaAs VCSELs with 1 mW output power have been achieved under RT CW operation. A J(th) of 1.52 kA cm-2 has been obtained for the MBE-grown In0.35Ga0.65N0.02As0.98/GaAs VCSELs, which is the lowest threshold current density reported. The emission characteristics of the InGaNAs/GaAs VCSELs were measured and analysed.

Molecular-beam-epitaxy growth of high structural and optical-quality InGaAsN/GaAs quantum wells (QW) has been investigated. The material quality can be improved significantly by using low-temperature growth to suppress the phase separation. High-performance ridge-waveguide InGaAsN/GaAs single QW lasers emitting at 1.3 mum have been demonstrated. Infinite-cavity-length threshold-current density of 400 A /cm(2), internal quantum efficiency of 96%. and a slope efficiency of 0.67 W/A for a cavity length L=1 mm were obtained. A TO46 packaging laser shows sin-le lateral-mode kink-free output power of more than 200 mW with a maximum total wallplug efficiency of 29% at room temperature under continuous wave (cw) operation. Moreover. 1.3 Am InGaAsN/GaAs QW vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with a threshold current density lower than 2 KA/cm(2) at room temperature have been achieved. We obtained multimode cw output power and slope efficiency in excess of 1 mW and 0.15 W/A. respectively. (C) 2004 American Vacuum Society.

The growth by molecular-beam-epitaxy of high-quality 1.3 mum InGaAsN/GaAs quantum wells (QW) intra-cavity contacted vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) was demonstrated. Low-temperature growth, which suppresses the phase separation significantly improves material quality in the active region. Room-temperature continuous wave (RT-CW) single mode output power of 0.75 mW with an initial slope efficiency of 0.17 W/A and a side mode suppression ratio of 40 dB at a lasing wavelength of as long as 1304 nm were obtained.
