Electrical characterizations and Hall measurements of current−voltage (IV) for GaAs/Al0.9Ga0.1As linear DBRs and GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7As/Al0.9Ga0.1 As graded DBRs were also performed at temperatures between 13 and 300 K. Consequently, p-type DBRs are designed with graded composition interfaces technique. The smaller mesa diameters are used to reduce vertical and longitudinal resistances and to limit the heating effect and improve the characteristics of VCSEL/VCSOA devices. ER -
