Abstract
A semiconductor structure configured for use in a VCSEL or RCLED. The semiconductor structure includes an oxidizing layer constructed from materials that can be oxidized during a lithographic process so as to create an oxide aperture. The semiconductor structure further includes a number of layers near the oxidizing layer. A passivation material is disposed on the layers near the oxidizing layer. The passivation material is configured to inhibit oxidation of the layers.
