Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor lasers, and particularly discloses a preparation method of a distributed Bragg reflector and a vertical cavity surface emitting laser. Themethod comprises the steps: providing a substrate; and alternately growing the first refractive index layer and the second refractive index layer of the distributed Bragg reflector on the substrate in turn, wherein the lattice constant of the substrate is located between the lattice constant of the first refractive index layer and the lattice constant of the second refractive index layer. The substrate having the lattice constant between the lattice constant of the first refractive index layer and the lattice constant of the second refractive index lay is used so that the stress of the firstrefractive index layer and the second refractive index layer grown on the substrate is enabled to cancel each other, i.e. the stress caused by lattice mismatch is eliminated by using the strain compensation mode so that the growth of the strain-free Bragg reflector is realized, and the problem of warping of the epitaxial wafer is avoided.
