摘要
In this paper, we report on 64 degrees C continuous-wave (CW) operation of a 1.5-mu m vertical-cavity laser, This laser consists of two fused Al(Ga)As-GaAs mirrors with a strain-compensated InGaAsP-InP active region, Selective lateral oxidation is used for current confinement, Minimum room-temperature threshold current is as low as 0.8 mA, and maximum CW output power is as high as 1 mW at 15 degrees C. Pulsed operation is achieved up to 100 degrees C, Current spreading losses and device heating are analyzed in detail, Dynamic parameters such as maximum 3-dB parameters such as maximum, 3-dB bandwidth (4.7 GHz), alpha factor (4.0), and linewidth (39 MHz) are also investigated.
