Large Fabrication Tolerance for VCSELs Using High-Contrast Grating

Large Fabrication Tolerance for VCSELs Using High-Contrast Grating

We report the experimental demonstration of a large fabrication tolerance for a single-layer, highly reflective high-index-contrast subwavelength grating (HCG) mirror. HCG vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are demonstrated with plusmn20% variation in the HCG critical dimension. Emissi...

Zusammenfassung:We report the experimental demonstration of a large fabrication tolerance for a single-layer, highly reflective high-index-contrast subwavelength grating (HCG) mirror. HCG vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are demonstrated with plusmn20% variation in the HCG critical dimension. Emission wavelength of the HCG-VCSEL shifts only 2 nm with 40% change in grating spacing and 8% change in grating period.
