Abstract: In some implementations, a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) includes a substrate layer and epitaxial layers on the substrate layer. The epitaxial layers may include an active layer, a first mirror, a second mirror, and one or more oxidation layers. The active layer may be between the first mirror and the second mirror, and the one or more oxidation layers may be proximate to the active layer. The one or more oxidation layers may be configured to control beam divergence of a laser beam emitted by the VCSEL based on at least one of: a quantity of the one or more oxidation layers, a shape of the one or more oxidation layers, a thickness of the one or more oxidation layers, or a proximity of the one or more oxidation layers to the active layer.

Abstract: An emitter may include a substrate, a conductive layer on at least a bottom surface of a trench, and a first metal layer to provide a first electrical contact of the emitter on an epitaxial side of the substrate. The first metal layer may be within the trench such that the first metal layer contacts the conductive layer within the trench. The emitter may further include a second metal layer to provide a second electrical contact of the emitter on the epitaxial side of the substrate, and an isolation implant to block lateral current flow between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact.

Abstract: An apparatus may include an upper transparent plate to hold a wafer of bottom-emitting or bottom-detecting optical devices, wherein the upper transparent plate comprises a set of holes in an area of the upper transparent plate for holding the wafer. The apparatus may include a lower transparent plate and a structure supporting the upper transparent plate and the lower transparent plate to form a cavity bounded by the upper transparent plate, the lower transparent plate, and the structure, wherein the structure comprises an opening in fluid communication with the cavity, wherein applying suction through the opening, via the cavity and the set of holes, holds the wafer flat on the upper transparent plate, and wherein an optical path, between a bottom-emitting or bottom-detecting optical device of the bottom-emitting or bottom-detecting optical devices of the wafer and a testing device, passes through the upper transparent plate, the cavity, and the lower transparent plate.

Abstract: In some implementations, a VCSEL array may include a plurality of VCSELs that each operates concurrently and emits light at a same wavelength. A first distance between a first pair of adjacent VCSELs, of the plurality of VCSELs, may be different from a second distance between a second pair of adjacent VCSELs of the plurality of VCSELs. The first pair of adjacent VCSELs may be located closer to a center of the VCSEL array than the second pair of adjacent VCSELs. At least one of temperature non-uniformity or optical power non-uniformity among the plurality of VCSELs may be reduced as compared to another VCSEL array, with a same physical footprint as the VCSEL array, comprising uniformly spaced VCSELs.
