Problems solved by technology

This type of method needs to reduce the diameter of the oxidation hole of the device to 3-5 μm, the preparation process is very complicated, and the repeatability and yield of the device are relatively uncontrollable
At the same time, smaller oxidized pore size will bring problems such as large series resistance, severe heat generation, and poor stability.

Abstract

The invention discloses a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with a circular light spot, which comprises a horizontal resonant cavity laser unit. The horizontal resonant cavity laser unit is etched with a double-groove structure on its surface, and a ridge is formed between the double-groove structures. A flat plate layer is formed under the double-groove structure; a mirror unit is etched obliquely at the end of the horizontal resonator laser unit in the laser emission direction. The etching angle θ of the mirror unit is 45°, and the etching depth is from horizontal to horizontal. The resonator laser unit starts from the surface and extends down to at least the bottom of the slab layer; the ridge platform is provided with an expanded horn section at one end close to the reflector unit. The reflector unit of the present invention can effectively transform the horizontal edge emitting beam into a vertical emitting beam, thereby facilitating the realization of a circular spot single-mode high-power vertical emitting, and overcomes the need to oxidize the aperture in order to achieve single-mode high power in the prior art Minimize the various problems that arise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor optoelectronics, in particular to a vertical cavity surface emitting laser with a circular light spot. Background technique [0002] Vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) is widely used in optical communication, optical interconnection, optical It has a wide range of applications in neutral network and optical signal processing. The single transverse mode of a VCSEL is essential for most applications as it facilitates efficient coupling to fibers and eliminates noise and instabilities due to mode competition. [0003] In the laser resonator, the stable field distribution on a certain cross-section perpendicular to the propagation direction is called the transverse mode, that is, the light intensity distribution on the cross-section. Due to the fact that the reflective surface and the active area of ​​the laser are not ideal planes and the influence of the injected current, the act...
