摘要 |
A vertical cavity surface-emitting laser, and method of fabricating such a laser, for use in an optical communication system including an optical cavity arranged between a pair of distributed Bragg reflectors, an active region in the optical cavity, and an oxidized current confinement layer arranged on one side of the active layer. The current confinement layer includes a component, such as antimony, that is segregated into a conductive layer on one side of the current confinement layer during oxidation.
