  • Publication number: 20210184433
    Abstract: A laser device is fabricated to obtain optical modes adjustable. A first distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), a light-emitting layer, a second DBR, and a third DBR are sequentially grown on a substrate through deposition, sputtering, or epitaxy. The third DBR comprises at least one dielectric layer. An aperture is selectively formed at center of the third DBR through etching. On using, the present invention practices the aperture at the dielectric layer on top of the laser device. The optical modes generated is adjustable by controlling the diameter of the aperture or the number of layers contained in the dielectric layer. The divergence angle is decreased to less than 15 degrees, so that the far-field emission has uniform intensity distribution and the emission distance is increased in optical fiber. Thus, a rational structure design, a simple assembly, and a low-cost high-volume manufacture are obtained for mass production.

  • Publication number: 20140050240
    Abstract: A new vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCESL) is provided. With an undercut structure and a diffusion structure, the VCESL obtains a controllable number of optical modes for a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR). Thus, an electrical-to-optical bandwidth and a bit-rate transmission distance in OM4 fiber reach their biggest values. Besides, a biggest D-coefficient (˜13.5 GHz/mA1/2), a smallest energy-data rate under 34 Gbit/s (EDR:140 fJ/bit) and a smallest energy-data distance rate under 25 Gbit/s with 0.8 km of OM4 fiber (EDDR:175.5 fJ/bit·km) are obtained.

  • Patent number: 8649411
    Abstract: The present disclosure is a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) device. A relief structure is formed above or below a light emitting region by partially removing an aluminum composition layer of VCESL through an etching process. Thus, profound static performances are obtained, including low power consumption, biggest operational speed, and high ratio of data transmission to power consumption as 2.9 and 9.2 Gbps/mW under 34 and 12.5 Gbps, respectively.

  • Patent number: 6362844
    Abstract: A structure of an ink-jet printer head of a piezoelectric type comprising a deformable polymer membrane, an actuator and an ink tank is provided. The deformable polymer membrane covers the top opening of the ink tank to enclose the ink tank. The actuator, which is a double-layer piezoelectric ceramic plate, is mounted on the deformable polymer membrane with one end thereof being fixedly connected to the polymer membrane and the other end thereof being free to vibrate. As a double-layer piezoelectric ceramic plate is employed as the actuator, it includes a top and a bottom piezoelectric layers. A predetermined voltage signal is applied selectively across the upper-surface electrode and the lower-surface electrode of the top and bottom piezoelectric layer respectively such that the top piezoelectric layer extends and the bottom layer shortens selectively.
