Vertical Cavity Laser Joint Study Program with Rome Laboratory.
Abstract
This effort investigated the development of short wavelength VCSEL (vertical cavity surface emitting laser) material for potential application in optical interconnects for radar signal processing subsystems. GaN is the material system used and growth via molecular beam epitaxy on sapphire substrates was extensively investigated. Dry etching studies were performed. Due to the poor quality of these initial growths, VCSELs could not be fabricated.
