“…These advantages enable these materials to have many potential applications. On the other hand, compared to edge-emitting lasers and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) have the superiority of low power consumption, circular beam shape, high modulation response, and low divergence angles [5][6][7][8]. Armed with these attributes, GaN-based VCSELs are destined to replace conventional LEDs and lasers as light sources in many applications, including optical storage, laser printers, projectors, displays, solid-state lighting, and visible light communications.…”
