Abstract
A VCSEL array includes a base substrate, a plurality of VCSEL devices and an inter-device line. Each of the plurality of VCSEL devices is disposed on a front side of the base substrate. The inter-device line connects two of the plurality of VCSEL devices that are adjacent to each other, the two VCSEL devices being connected in series such that forward directions of the two VCSEL devices are the same. An insulating groove that electrically insulates the two VCSEL devices is formed on the base substrate.
