Embodiment 1

[0040] This embodiment provides a high-power vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with an integrated light-emitting area. After research and analysis, the existing vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with a ring-shaped upper electrode structure 113, when the current is injected, the current will mainly concentrate on the emission hole 10 The edge region of the emission hole 10 has a small current or even no current in the middle region of the emission hole 10. The current distribution in the edge region of the emission hole 10 is relatively crowded, while there is almost no current distribution in the middle region, which will cause the overall conversion efficiency of the vertical cavity surface emitting laser to be low. Low, the light intensity distribution in the emission hole 10 is not uniform. The design principle of the present invention is: the elongated emission regions 100 in the emission hole 10 are connected as a whole, and the distance (such as the lateral dist...

Abstract

The invention provides a high-power vertical cavity surface emitting laser with an integrated light emitting area. The high-power vertical cavity surface emitting laser comprises an emitting hole anda conductive layer, wherein an isolation groove is formed in the emitting hole, the emitting hole is partially isolated to form a long and narrow emission area which is communicated, and an insulatinglayer is arranged in an isolation layer; the conductive layer is filled in the isolation groove, extends towards the two sides and forms an ohmic contact with the long and narrow emission area. According to the emitting laser, the emitting hole of the vertical cavity surface emitting laser with the large oxidation aperture is isolated into the long and narrow emission area, and the long and narrow emission area is in contact with the conductive layer, so that the current path in the emitting hole is prolonged, and the current density of the middle area of the vertical cavity surface emittinglaser with the large oxidation aperture can be effectively increased; in addition, the current can be transversely transmitted from the conductive layer, so that the uniformity of the current densitydistribution in the light-emitting hole is greatly improved, and the conversion efficiency is improved. Meanwhile, the coherence of emergent light is kept in a large range. The laser can be applied tothe fields of laser radars, infrared cameras, depth recognition detectors and the like.
