摘要：
Micromechanical tunable VCSELs with dramatically improved performance are demonstrated using AlAs oxidation. Larger aperture (similar to 10 mu m) devices achieve record tuning of 19.1nm with 3.3mA threshold currents. Smaller aperture (similar to 5 mu m) devices achieve record threshold currents of 460 mu A, and output powers of 0.9mW with 7nm of tuning.
