An InGaAs sub-monolayer (SML) quantum dot photonic crystal vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (QD PhC-VCSEL) for fiberoptic applications is first time demonstrated. The active region of the device contains 3 InGaAs SML QD layers. Each of the InGaAs SML QD layer is formed by alternate deposition of InAs (< 1 ML) and GaAs. Single fundamental mode CW output power of 3.8 mW at 28 mA has been achieved in the 990 nm range, with a threshold current of 0.9 mA. Side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) larger than 35 dB has been demonstrated over entire current operation range. The beam profile study of the PhC-VCSEL indicates that the laser beam is well confined by the photonic crystal structure of the device. The divergence angle of the devices remains almost unchanged with increasing current. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The polarization switching of a cross-shaped vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) for dual-channel communications is demonstrated. The polarization of the lasing output is controlled by the asymmetry in geometry of the device and direction of current injection. High output power ratio of over 5, between two orthogonal (perpendicular) polarization directions has been achieved. The lasing output of the device can be switched between two nearly orthogonal directions.

We have made InGaAs submonolayer (SML) quantum-dot (QD) and InAs QD photonic-crystal vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (PhC-VCSELs) for fiber-optic communications in the 990 and 1300 nm ranges, respectively. The active region of the InGaAs SML QD PhC-VCSEL contains three InGaAs SML QD layers, with each of the SML QD layer formed by alternating depositions of InAs (< 1 ML) and GaAs. The active region of the InAs QD PhC-VCSEL contains 17 undoped InAs-InGaAs QD layers. Both types of QD PhC-VCSELs exhibit single-mode characteristics throughout the current range, with side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) larger than 35 dB. A maximum output power of 5.7 mW has been achieved for the InGaAs SML QD PhC-VCSEL. The near-field image study of the QD PhC-VCSELs indicates that the laser beam is well confined by the photonic-crystal structure of the device.

An oxide-confined multileaf holey light-emitting diode (LED) in the 780 nm range is reported. The device is consisted of bottom distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), quantum wells QWs), and top DBR, with a multileaf holey structure within the p-ohmic contact ring for light extraction. The spontaneous emission from under the etched holes and internally reflected lights can be extracted and collimated out of the smaller etched leaf holes. High-resolution imaging studies indicate that the device emits with smaller beams mainly through the multileaf etched holes made it suitable for fiber-optic communications.

A small-aperture oxide-confined holey light-emitting diode (LED) on p-type GaAs substrate in the 830 nm range is reported. The device is consisted of bottom distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), quantum wells (QWs), and top DBR, with a small-aperture holey structure at the center for light extraction. The internally reflected spontaneous emission can be extracted and collimated out of the etched hole. High-resolution imaging studies indicate that the device emits with a narrower beam mainly through the central etched hole region made it suitable for fiber-optic applications.

The epitaxial structures were grown on (100)GaAs substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). A maximum output power of more than 6.3 mW has been demonstrated. The spectral characteristics were also measured and analyzed.

Oxide-confined photonic-crystal (PhC) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on p-type GaAs substrate in the 830 nm range are reported. The device consists of a bottom distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), quantum wells (QWs), and a top DBR, with a photonic-crystal structure formed within the n-type ohmic contact ring for light extraction. The etching depth of the PhC holes is 17-pair out of the 22-pair top DBR being etched off. The internally reflected spontaneous light emission can be extracted out of PhC holes because of lower reflectance within those areas. High-resolution micrographic imaging studies indicate that the device emits light mainly through the photonic-crystal holes and it is suitable for optical communications.

A single-mode oxide-confined vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) with multi-leaf holey structure for fiber-optic applications is demonstrated. The optical con. nement was done by a multi-leaf holey structure. The deep etched leaf holes were used to provide better mode confinement and suppression of higher order modes. Single fundamental mode continuous-wave output power of over 1.1mW has been achieved in the 780nm range, with a threshold current of approximately 0.9 mA. Side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) larger than 24 dB has been measured.
