Abstract :
A proton-implanted photonic crystal vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser for fibre optic applications is demonstrated. Ultra-low threshold current of about 1.25 mA, single fundamental mode (SMSR>40 dB) CW output power of over 1 mW, with a pulsed output power exceeding 2 mW has been achieved in the 850 nm range.
