Operating Principles of VCSELs - Uni Ulm
www.uni-ulm.desurface-emitting laser (VCSEL) operation. Basic device properties and generally ... The light-current curve has a constant slope above threshold, as common for laser diodes, but shows a characteristic rollover for higher currents due to internal heating. Unlike for EELs it is uncritical to operate VCSELs up to their maximum output powers
