Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of semiconductor device, and in particular to a kind of to apply in vertical cavity surface emitting laser Distributed bragg reflector mirror.
Background technology
The active area thickness of straight cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) only has several nanometers, and gain by one path is very low.Swash to realize Penetrate must on the active area, lower both sides growth distribution formula Bragg mirror (Distributed Bragg Reflector, DBR).Typical DBR mirror structures are by the height (Al of such as low Al components to quarter-wave thicknessxGa1-xAs), low Refractive index (such as AlAs) film tens periods of alternating growth obtain the high reflectance of expected design.In order to ensure that DBR has Very high reflectivity and wider reflection bandwidth, two kinds of materials for constituting the distribution Bragg reflector basic cycle should have to the greatest extent Big refringence is measured, but the two kinds of material energy gaps that will also result in saltant type DBR in this way differ greatly so that they Homotype hetero-junctions has prodigious series resistance, keeps VCSEL device heatings serious, causes lasing difficult.It is previous to reduce DBR series connection The technology of resistance is all an attempt to ensure under the premise of each period is still the quarter-wave thickness of standard, at two kinds It is inserted into stepped ramp type or the content gradually variational layer of gradual shape between high and low refractive index material, it is different can so to substantially reduce homotype Potential barrier between matter knot, to make the series resistance of DBR have the reduction of the order of magnitude, so as to improve the performance of VCSEL.But in molecule Beam epitaxy (MBE) equipment grows AlxGa1-xDuring As DBR, tens period alternating growth AlxGa1-xAs and content gradually variational layer When, it needs constantly to change Al source oven temperature degree so that growth course complexity and be difficult to control growth technique very well, especially for only In the MBE growing systems for having the single sources Al stove, grows this DBR speculums and need the more sources Al stove heating and cooling times, in this way Structure design be unfavorable to VCSEL industrialization.
In view of this, special propose the present invention.
