Abstract

Novel VCSEL structure with a high-index-contrast grating (HCG) mirror that can selectively choose one of two LP₀₁ and four LP₁₁ modes is proposed and numerically investigated. This can be achieved by designing the spatial reflectivity profile of the HCG so that the HCG gives a LP mode of interest the highest modal reflectivity among six LP modes. This approach may considerably miniaturize the light source module for mode-division multiplexing.
