Abstract: A method of incorporating a control structure within a VCSEL device cavity using a multiphase growth sequence includes forming a first mirror over a substrate, forming an active region over the first mirror, forming a spacer on a surface of the active region, forming a control structure on a surface of the spacer, and forming a second mirror over the control structure. The active region and the spacer are formed using a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) process during an MBE phase of the multiphase growth sequence. The second mirror is formed using a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process during an MOCVD phase of the multiphase growth sequence. The control structure is formed using a chemical etching process during a transition period between the MBE phase and the MOCVD phase of the multiphase growth sequence.

Abstract: State information is received from a server indicating an identity of a user logged into the server. An administrative domain wide policy is determined that specifies a relationship between user a group and services or servers accessible to users belonging to the user group. Relevant servers are sent updated management instructions corresponding to rules of the administrative domain wide policy. Such rules provide access to a service or server to users belonging to user groups related to the service. As a result, the servers allow communications that provide access to users based on the specified relationships.
