摘要
为了在制作垂直腔面发射激光器(VCSEL)时选择合适的氧化孔径尺寸,以获得较好的光束质量和较高的输出功率,对具有不同氧化孔径的单管器件的热特性进行了实验研究。通过控制氧化时间,制作了氧化孔径分别为415、386、316μm的单管器件,台面直径和P型接触电极直径均为450μm和400μm。针对3种器件在室温连续工作条件下不同的输出特性,对它们的热阻进行了实验测量,发现氧化孔径越小时器件热阻越大。通过对比电流、波长及温度的关系,得到了由电流引起的自热效应给3种器件带来的温升情况。注入电流为1A时,氧化孔径为415μm的器件温度为32.4℃,氧化孔径为386μm的器件温度为35.2℃,氧化孔径为316μm时,器件的温度高达76.4℃。
Thermal characteristics of single vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser （VCSEL） devices with different oxide apertures are studied experimentally in order to get better beam quality and higher output power by choosing appropriate size of the oxide aperture. Single devices with oxide apertures of 415, 386, and 316μm are made by controlling the oxidation time. Diameters of the mesa and the P type contact are 450μm and 400μm, respectively. Thermal resistances of three kinds of devices are measured experimentally based on their different output characteristics under continuous-wave （CW） operation at room temperature. It is found that the smaller the oxide aperture is, the larger the thermal resistance of the device becomes. Temperature rise caused by self heating of injection current is obtained by comparing the relationship of current, wavelength and temperature. At a current of 1 A, the temperature of devices are 32.4 ℃ , 35.2℃ and 76.4℃ corresponding to the oxide aperture of 415, 386, and 316μm, respectively.
