Abstract :
The authors present the first demonstration of a monolithic vertical cavity laser optically pumped at 1.55 μm. The laser cavity is grown in a single run by low pressure MOVPE and the total thickness is 16.4 μm with an InGaAlAs (λx=1.55 μm) bulk active region (3λ/2 thick) between two InGaAlAs (λx =1.45 μm)/InAlAs Bragg stacks
