摘要/Abstract

摘要： The mode splitting induced by electro-optic birefringence in a P–I–N InGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) has been studied by polarized electroluminescence (EL) at room temperature. The polarized EL spectra with E‖[110] and E‖[110] directions, are extracted for different injected currents. The mode splitting of the two orthogonal polarized modes for a VCSEL device is determined, and its value increases linearly with the increasing injected current due to electro-optic birefringence. This article demonstrates that the polarized EL is a powerful tool to study the mode splitting and polarization anisotropy of a VCSEL device.
