Abstract :
Summary form only given. We realized stable high-order mode GaAs VCSEL with surface micromachined relief. Single mode output power of over 3.5 mW and a record low series resistance of below 50 /spl Omega/ were obtained. The proposed structure is promising for use in high speed data links of beyond 10 Gb/s as well as in optical data storage.
