Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, because the doped DBR high-reflection film forms a homogeneous heterojunction, the series resistance is very large, especially the large effective mass of the holes leads to very serious heating of the P-type DBR, and even affects

Abstract

A type of damp corrupting method of gallium arsenide/aluminium arsenide distributing Prague reflector that characterized in that it includes following steps: (A) on the underlay, the gallium arsenide cushion layer is generated extendedly by method of molecule beam extension; (B) generating several period distribution Prague reflector on the gallium arsenide cushion layer; (C) photoetching the distribution Prague reflector to form photosensitive resist pattern, light possesses width of photosensitive resist in the photosensitive resist pattern; (D) eating off the part of the distribution Prague reflector by cauterization solution; (E) cauterization solution and selective cauterization solution are alternatively used to etch the distribution Prague reflector, so the required cauterization depth can be achieved precisely.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a part of the vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) manufacturing process, and mainly relates to a method for precisely controlling the etching depth of a gallium arsenide (GaAs) / aluminum arsenide (AlAs) distributed Bragg reflector (DBR). Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of low threshold, single longitudinal mode operation, easy integration and optical coupling, vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) has attracted widespread attention of scientists and has become one of the research hotspots in the field of optoelectronics. It has a very broad application prospect. The VCSEL resonant cavity is formed by two upper and lower Bragg reflectors (DBR) sandwiching the active region resonant cavity in the middle. DBR is composed of two semiconductor materials stacked with a thickness of λ / 4, and has a reflectivity of more than 99%. [0003] However, because the doped DBR high-reflection film forms ...
