Abstract
A method of fabricating a surface-emitting laser includes the steps of fabricating a substrate product including device sections, a pad electrode, and a conductor, each of the device sections including a surface-emitting laser having an electrode, the conductor connecting the pad electrode to the electrode across a boundary of the device sections; attaching a connection device to the substrate product, the connection device including a probe device having a probe and a probe support base having an opening; performing a burn-in test of the surface-emitting lasers by applying electric power to the pad electrode through the probe at a high temperature; and after the burn-in test, separating the substrate product into semiconductor chips. The burn-in test includes a step of monitoring light emitted by the surface-emitting laser through the opening during the burn-in test, and a step of selecting the surface-emitting lasers based on a monitoring result.
