Abstract

The invention discloses a vertical-cavity surface-emitting semiconductor laser, and belongs to the technical field of lasers. The laser solves the technical problems that a VCSEL in the prior art is low in single mode output power and poor in single mode stability. The laser comprises a P type DBR, an active region, an N type DBR, a substrate and an N surface electrode, wherein the P type DBR, the active region, the N type DBR, the substrate and the N surface electrode are sequentially and closely arranged from top to bottom, and an oxidation confinement layer with an oxidation hole is arranged in the P type DBR. The laser further comprises a P surface electrode, a transparent conducting thin film and an annular insulating medium film, wherein the annular insulating medium film is fixed to the upper surface of the P type DBR and shields the edge of a light exiting hole, the transparent conducting thin film is fixed to the upper surface of the P type DBR, covers the annular insulating medium film and shields the light exiting hole, and the P surface electrode is fixed to the edge of the upper surface of the transparent conducting thin film and does not shield the light exiting hole. The laser can increase the ground mode output power and improve the reliability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vertical cavity surface emitting semiconductor laser (VCSEL), belonging to the technical field of lasers. Background technique [0002] Due to its good laser stability, coherence and beam quality, single-mode lasers are widely used in communications, printing, pump sources, gas detection and analysis, computer optical mice and other fields. With the further development of these fields, it is required that VCSEL can realize high-power single-mode output. It is widely used in communication, printing, pump source, gas detection and analysis, computer optical mouse and other fields. [0003] In the prior art, there are usually two types of VCSELs to achieve single-mode output: the first way is to increase the mode gain difference so that the gain of the fundamental mode is higher than the gain of the high-order mode, and then through a higher single-mode rejection ratio, the single-mode output is realized. Fundamental mode sing...
