Abstract

AbstractThe enhancement of single transverse mode operation in vertical cavity surface emitting lasers by using interdiffused quantum wells is proposed and analyzed. It is observed that the influence of self-focusing (arising from carrier spatial hole burning and thermal lensing) on the profile of transverse modes can be minimized by introducing a step diffused quantum wells structure inside the core region of quantum-well active layer. Stable single-mode operation in vertical cavity surface emitting lasers can also be maintained.
