  • Abstract
    We have succeeded in making a surface-emitting GaInAsP/InP injection laser with short cavity length (¿ 10 ¿m) which operates at 1.22 ¿m of wavelength with threshold current of 160 mA (33 kA/cm2) at 77 K. No side-emitting mode was observed as a result of preparing long absorbing regions and a small dot electrode (25 ¿m ¿). One of the longitudinal modes, with a spacing of 170 Å, dominated above threshold and the far-field radiation angle was sharp (2¿¿ = 10°).
