Abstract

A surface-emitting semiconductor laser device is provided that includes an edge-emitting laser integrated in a semiconductor material with various reflectors and a diffractive lens. The edge-emitting laser has a first section comprising an active MQW region, a second section comprising a passive region and a third section comprising a semi-insulating or un-doped semiconductor bulk layer. This configuration ensures that the injection current will pass through all of the layers of the active region, thereby preventing the occurrence of optical losses due to un-injected areas of the MQW active region. In addition, the inclusion of the passive region ensures that there is no current passing through the interface between the active MQW region and the regrown semiconductor bulk layer. The latter feature improves performance and device reliability.
