Abstract
A simplified fabrication process for VCSELs which employs oxidation-vias for definition of the laser aperture and bond pad is applied to a full 150mm wafer as a technique for material characterisation. This Quick Fabrication process produces representative VCSELs, with performance comparable to standard process VCSELs, with threshold currents for 8μm oxide-aperture devices measured between 0.8 and 1.3mA for both device types. The redshift of the lasing wavelength and threshold currents are used for rapid assessment of the VCSEL wafers.
