Abstract :
Vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are of great interest in this application because of their low cost fabrication, 2D integrable geometry, ultralow threshold current, and tight circular beam shape. We demonstrate high efficiency 850 nm bottom-emitting VCSELs on transparent undoped GaP and sapphire substrates.
