Abstract

We report here efforts to advance 850 nm VCSELs designed specifically for integration to Si- CMOS. Our VCSEL design is based on an oxidized current aperture and oxidized top mirror with the intent that the device operate as a bottom emitter after integration. Our design also employs intercavity contacts and the first non-alloyed buried contact have been realized. The devices produce resonantly enhanced light emission with record output of 70 μW/st.rad.
