Notes:
The feasibility of a photopumped infrared vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) based on CdHgTe alloys is demonstrated. The structure of the VCSEL consists of a 16.5-period Cd0.4Hg0.6Te/Cd0.75Hg0.25Te bottom Bragg reflector and a 3λ/4 thick Cd0.75Hg0.25Te cavity, containing a 100-nm-thick well, grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The top mirror is a 7-period YF3/ZnS dielectric stack. The cavity quality factor is Q=350. This heterostructure VCSEL operates at 3.06 μm with a measured power density threshold of 45 kW/cm2 at 10 K. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
