Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of fabricating vertical-cavity surface emitting lasers being watched as a light source for long wavelength communication. The present invention includes forming a layer having a high resistance near the surface by implanting heavy ions such as silicon (Si), so that the minimum current injection diameter is made very smaller unlike implantation of a proton. Further, the present invention includes regrowing crystal so that current can flow the epi surface in parallel to significantly reduce the resistance up to the current injection part formed by silicon (Si) ions. Therefore, the present invention can not only effectively reduce the current injection diameter but also significantly reduce the resistance of a device to reduce generation of a heat. Further, the present invention can further improve dispersion of a heat using InP upon regrowth and thus improve the entire performance of the device.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a multi-channel array optical device having uniform spacing between different wavelengths and for having precise wavelengths by accomplishing wavelength adjustment and by the forming of mirror layers simultaneously through a multi-layer binary mask and a selective oxidization process. This method is especially useful for fabricating multi-channel array optical devices including multi-channel passive filters and multi-channel surface emitting laser arrays. The method includes forming a plurality of semiconductor mirror layers on a semiconductor substrate; forming an oxidization protective layer on the plurality of semiconductor mirror layers; selectively removing the oxidization protective layer by using a binary mask to expose the semiconductor mirror layer which will adjust a wavelength; oxidizing the exposed semiconductor mirror layer.
