Abstract
The mode splitting induced by electro-optic birefringence in an P-I-N InGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) has been studied by photocurrent difference spectroscopy (PCDS) at room temperature. The mode splitting, anisotropic broadening width, and the anisotropic integrated area of the two orthogonal polarized modes for a VCSEL device are determined. The mode splitting changes linearly with the injected current, which agree very well with theoretical calculations using a Jones matrix approach. It is demonstrated that the PCDS is a powerful tool to study the cavity anisotropy of a VCSEL device.
