研究目的
Investigating the feasibility of continuous-wave operation of green vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with a curved mirror on the bottom side formed of {20?21}-plane GaN.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated room-temperature continuous-wave operation of green vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with a curved mirror on {20?21} semi-polar GaN. The emission wavelength and the threshold current were 515 nm and 1.8 mA, respectively. Combining the device with existing blue and red devices enables full color light sources.
研究不足
The wall plug efficiency (WPE) was less than 0.1%. The emission wavelength is affected by inconsistencies in QD quality and instabilities in controlling the cavity length.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study investigates the feasibility of CW operation of green VCSELs with a curved mirror on the bottom side formed of {20?21}-plane GaN.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
MOCVD was used to grow four quantum wells (InGaN/GaN MQWs), a p-GaN layer doped with Mg, and a contact layer doped with Mg on a (20?21) GaN substrate.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A 30-nm-thick ITO layer and a p-side DBR with
4:5 Ta2O5/SiO2 bilayers were deposited on the contact layer. An n-side DBR with 14 Ta2O5/SiO2 bilayers was deposited to form the curved mirrors. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The wafer was lapped to a thickness of about 20 μm. Resin disks were photolithographed on the lapped face of the GaN wafer, melted into droplets, and transferred onto the GaN substrate by reactive ion etching.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The device characteristics and behavior were measured under CW current injection at room temperature.
