  • Abstract
    We designed a new waveguide structure of "reversed-graded index" (RGRIN) layer to reduce the vertical far-field divergence, and optimized the RGRIN structure with LASTIP program. By expanding the light field outside active region and keeping the confinement factor at the same time, a RGRIN structure with small vertical divergence angle and low threshold current has been obtained. Compared to broad waveguide structure, RGRIN structure can achieve the same vertical divergence with a thinner thickness.
