Abstract

The single transverse mode operation of VCSELs with low threshold current (Ith) of 1.5 mA, slope efficiencies about 0.35 W/A, high optical output power of 3.8 mW and speed performance of 10 Gbit/s is reported. The laser has continuous-wave operation and employs oxygen implantation, MOCVD regrowth and selective oxidation on semi-insulating GaAs substrate.
