ABSTRACT:
A vertical-cavity surface emitting laser includes a substrate and a first mirror that is grown on the substrate, a second mirror grown on the first mirror for resonating the first mirror and light, an active layer between the first mirror and the second mirror for generating and amplifying the light, an upper electrode grown on the active layer and a lower electrode formed on the first mirror for supplying current to the active layer, a planarizing polymer formed on the first mirror for burying the active layer and the second layer, and a first external terminal extending from the upper electrode in a vertical upward direction to be exposed to the top surface of the planarizing polymer and a second external terminal extending from the lower electrode to expose its one surface to the top surface of the planarizing polymer.
