摘要
We disclose a method of eliminating the polarization instability in laterally oxidized vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers. By employing an appropriately shaped device aperture, we are able to make the lasers operate in a single polarization direction through their entire L-I curve. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
