Abstract
The design and fabrication of a room-temperature continuous wave (cw) vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is reported. The device was fabricated by two deep H+ implantations using parallel tungsten wires as the resist mask. The direction of the mask in the first implantation is perpendicular to that in the second. The fabrication process is the simplest ever reported for vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser fabrication. A lowest threshold current of 17 mA and a maximum light output power of 4 mW were obtained.
