The Springer Series in Photonics covers the entire f ield of photonics, including theory, experiment, and the technology of photonic devices. The books published in this series give a careful survey of the state-of-the-art in photonic science and technology for all the relevant classes of active and passive photonic components and materials. This series will appeal to researchers, engineers, and advanced students.
An index-guided InGaAs/GaAlAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with a native oxide confinement structure has been proposed and fabricated. A record threshold current of 70μA was achieved by a 5μmϕ core device. The proposed structure provides both strong electrical and optical confinements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
