Study of monolithically integrated 940 nm AlGaAs distributed Bragg reflectors on graded GaAsP/bulk Si substrates

We report the fabrication of monolithically integrated 940 nm AlGaAs distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) on graded GaAsP/Si substrates. Low-density surface bumps and cross-hatch patterns were observed on the DBR surfaces. Cross-sectional DBR layers are smooth and flat. The reflectance spectra of the GaAsP/Si DBRs have lower intensities than the GaAs DBRs and have double peaks. Transfer matrix method calculations, surface scratch and polishing tests were conducted, which suggest that the surface cross-hatch was the cause of the inferior DBR reflectance spectra.

Monolithic integration of 940 nm AlGaAs distributed Bragg reflectors on bulk Ge substrates

High quality 940 nm Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As n-type distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) were successfully monolithically grown on off-cut Ge (100) substrates. The Ge-DBRs have reflectivity spectra comparable to those grown on conventional bulk GaAs substrates and have smooth morphology, reasonable periodicity and uniformity. These results strongly support VCSEL growth and fabrication on more scalable bulk Ge substrates for large scale production of AlGaAs-based VCSELs.
