Reliable high-speed oxide-confined vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser
An oxide-confined vertical cavity surface emitting laser including a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) wherein the layers of the (DBR) includes a multi-section layer consisting of a first section having a moderately high aluminum composition, an second section which is an insertion having a low aluminum composition, and a third section which is an oxide-confined aperture formed by partial oxidation of a layer having a high aluminum composition (95% and above). A difference in aluminum composition between a high value in the aperture layer and a moderately high value in the first section prevents non-desirable oxidation of the first section from the mesa side while the aperture layer is being oxidized. A low aluminum composition in the second section prevents non-desirable oxidation in the vertical direction of the layer adjacent to the targeted aperture layer.
