We report InAs-InGaAs quantum-dot vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy with fully doped n- and p-doped AlGaAs distributed Bragg reflectors and including an AlAs layer to form a current and waveguiding aperture. The metal contacts are deposited on a topmost p(+) (GaAs)-Ga-. contact layer and on the bottom surface of the n(+)-GaAs substrate. This conventional selectively oxidized top-emitting device configuration avoids the added complexity of fabricating intracavity or coplanar ohmic contacts. The VCSELs operate continuous-wave at room temperature with peak output powers of 0.33 mW and differential slope efficiencies up to 0.23 W/A. The peak lasing wavelengths are near 1.275 mu m, with a sidemode suppression ratio of 28 dB.

An emission wavelength record emission wavelength of 1245 nm in double InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells without a strain-compensated barrier is obtained by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The effect of annealing on highly strained InGaAs quantum wells is analyzed using phtoluminanescence spectra. By comparing devices p-type distributed Bragg reflector (p-DBR) growth temperatures, the preliminary results indicate that a device with a low p-DBR growth temperature of 670 degrees C exhibits a low threshold current and a high light output power. A threshold current of 6.7 mA in an InGaAs vertical-cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) in CW operation is realized with an emission spectrum up to 1.26 mu m.

A series of highly strained InGaAs quantum wells (QWs) with GaAs barriers emitting at wavelength longer than 1.2 mu m are grown on GaAs substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The optimized windows of the V/III ratio of the InGaAs layer and the growth rate of the barrier are first investigated on thease highly strained QWs. By an appropriate choice of the growth conditions, we extend the room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) wavelength of InGaAs QWs to 1245 nm, which corresponds to an indium content of 42%. A GaAs-based InGaAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) at an emission wavelength of 1.28 mu m with a large detuning of 90 nm has been realized by the use of highly strained InGaAs QWs.

High-speed vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers that could be modulated up to 10 Giga-bit-per-second (Gbps) were accomplished by using additional proton implantation to reduce the parasitic capacitance. The eye diagram of the implanted device shows a noticeable improvement when compared with those devices without implantation. In contrast to previous reports, moreover, the output power-current-voltage (L-I-V) characteristics of the fabricated devices ill this study show excellent consistency between before and after implantation. The high-temperature lifetime of devices fabricated with a similar process has already exceeded 8100 h up to the present day.

A long-emission-wavelength laser with multiple InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells without a strain-compensated barrier was grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). InGaAs quantum well (QW) broad-area laser diodes with an emission wavelength of up to 1214 nm were realized. A measured room-temperature threshold current density of only 173 A/cm(2) for a 2-mm-cavity device and a transparency current density of 66 A/cm(2) were obtained. The internal quantum efficiency and laser cavity loss were 67% and 6 cm(-1), respectively.
