Abstract :
A GaAs/AlGaAs laser, consisting of a cleaved facet and a chemically etched total-internal-reflecting rooftop reflector, is fabricated and tested. The results show that the rooftop reflector with the reflectivity exceeding 0.9 can be readily obtained and the laser is suitable for optoelectronic integrated circuits.
