Appl. No.:

11/677417

Inventors:

Jeffrey E. Ungar - Valley Village CA, US
Mark L. Osowski - Tujunga CA, US

International Classification:

H01S 5/00

US Classification:

372 5011, 372 501

Abstract:

Diode lasers comprise a substrate and a number of material layers disposed thereon that include a P-type material layer, and an N-type material layer. A gain layer and diffraction grating feedback layer can be also be included in the material layers. The material layers are formed by epitaxial deposition, during which process a wall surface common to the material layers is also formed. This wall surface forms an internally reflective wall surface within the material layers that is oriented to reflect a laser beam internally within the diode laser construction towards a top or bottom surface of the diode laser for emission therefrom. In an preferred embodiment, the internally reflective wall surface is oriented at a 45 degree angle, and the laser beam is reflected by the wall surface to emit the laser beam from the diode laser at a 90 degree angle relative to the top or bottom surface.

US Classification:

257 13, 438 29, 257E33008, 257E33068

Abstract:

A method of fabricating a light emitting diode using an epitaxial lift-off process includes forming a sacrificial layer on a substrate, forming a light emitting diode structure on the sacrificial layer with an epitaxial material, forming a light reflecting layer on the light emitting diode structure, and removing the sacrificial layer using an etching process to separate the substrate from the light emitting diode structure.

Inventors:

Mark Osowski - Tujunga CA, US
Jeffrey Ungar - Valley Village CA, US

International Classification:

H01S005/00

US Classification:

372050124

Abstract:

An array of semiconductor lasers on a single semiconductive die. The die includes a plurality of laser stripes optically coupled to a reflective surface. The laser stripes generate a plurality of laser beams traveling in a direction essentially parallel to a top surface of the die. The reflective surface redirects the laser beams to emit in a direction essentially perpendicular to the top surface. Alternatively, the reflective surface may redirect the laser beams to emit from a bottom surface of the die. The reflective surface can be formed by etching a vicinally oriented III-V semiconductive die so that the reflecting surface extends along a (111)A crystalline plane of the die.
