Abstract

Flip-chip bonding enables a unique architecture for two-dimensional arrays of VCSELs. Such arrays feature scalable power outputs and the capability to separately address sub-array regions while maintaining fast turn-on and turn-off response times. These substrate-emitting VCSEL arrays can also make use of integrated micro-lenses for beam shaping and directional control. Advances in the performance of these laser arrays will be reviewed and emerging applications are discussed.
