Abstract

The operation of the Hot Electron Light Emitting and Lasing in Semiconductor Heterostructure -- Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (HELLISH-VCSEL) devices is based on hot carrier transport parallel to the layers of Ga_1-xAl_xAs p-n junction. It is therefore a field - effect device and the light emission from the device is independent of the polarity of the applied voltage. In this study, we present the temperature dependence of the operational characteristics of the device. Experimental studies comprising of the measurements of the I-V characteristics, electroluminescence, reflectivity, and temperature dependent light-applied electric field (L-F) characteristics are conducted to find the optimum operating temperature of the device.
