Abstract

We demonstrate the fabrication and room temperature operation of an electrically pumped circular-grating surface-emitting distributed-Bragg-reflector laser. An InGaAs/GaAs SQW GRINSCH structure was grown by one-step MBE. Circular gratings were defined by focused ion beam lithography. The lasing wavelength was 942 nm, and the threshold current was 280 mA. This is the first demonstration of these lasers with no epitaxial regrowth.
