The VCSELs with open-annulus-distributed holes have a light output power 1.34 times higher than those with ring trenches. The 14μm-aperture devices have a light output power higher than 10mW and have a maximum of 12.48mW at 29.6mA. In addition,open-annulus-distributed holes offer bridges for current injection,so the connecting Ti-Au metal between the ohmic contact and bonding pad does not have to cross the ring trench, and it therefore would not cause the connecting metal to be broken. These VCSELs also show high-temperature operation capabilities,and they have a maximum output power of 8mW even at an operation temperature of up to 60℃.展开更多

The maximum tuning range (MTR) and the continuous tuning range (CTR), which are related to the maximum and the minimum threshold carrier densities, are deduced from the threshold condition. We define a ratio of the CTR to the MTR. This ratio is only determined by the reflectivities of the external and internal facets of the ECLD. The analysis shows that there is an appropriate combination of the external and internal-cavity reflectivities to obtain a given CTR in the design of an ECLD.展开更多

The considered factors were tunneling probability, tun- neling time and carriers thermal escape time from the quantum well. The calculation results show that with increas- ing of the ground-state energy level in quantum well, the tunneling probability increases and the tunneling time decreases, while the thermal escape time decreases because the ground-state energy level is shallower. Longitudinal optical phonon-assisted tunneling can be an effective method to solve the problem that both the tunneling time and the thermal escape time decrease simultaneously with the ground-state energy level increasing in quantum well.展开更多
