Abstract :
We have demonstrated low-threshold GaInNAs VCSELs operating cw at room temperature, with an emission wavelength of 1200 nm. Higher output power will be possible by reducing the resistance of the p-DBR, and 1300 nm VCSEL emission will be achieved by increasing the indium and/or nitrogen content of the GaInNAs-GaAs multiple quantum well active layer, use of GaNAs barriers, and optimized growth and annealing conditions.
