    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vertical cavity surface emitting laser which enhances a lattice matching property, by using a metallic substrate and which can be emitted at an ultraviolet/blue/green visible spectrum. SOLUTION: In an ultraviolet/blue/green vertical cavity surface emitting laser(VCSEL) 10, a VCSEL structure is formed on a metallic single-crystal substrate 12 so as to store data at high density. The metallic single-crystal substrate 12 is used as a rear reflecting mirror, and it acts together with an aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride distributed Bragg reflector 20 so as to increase the total reflectance of the VCSEL laser 10. The metallic substrate 12 is made of a substance such as nickel, aluminum or the like. As a result, it is possible to enhance a lattice matching property with a contained III nitride material.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a vertical cavity surface emitting laser attaining a high reflectivity, by arranging a second contact layer on a second cladding region, and arranging a dielectric mirror stack on the second contact layer. SOLUTION: An N-doped gallium phosphide layer of DBR mirror structure 10, i.e., an N-contact layer 18 is fusion welded on the uppermost surface of a second cladding region 36 of an active VCSEL element. A VCSEL 40 is defined in a second contact layer, a first cladding layer 30 and an active region. Conductive material is arranged on the second contact layer 28, and a P-electric contact 48 is formed. Conductive material is arranged on the contact layer 18, and an N-electric contact is formed. After that, a P-metal contact 48 is deposited on the contact layer 28 in such a manner that a laser emitting aperture 52 is left in an open state. Concerning the first contact layer 18, an N-metal layer 50 is deposited in the same manner as the second cladding layer 36 surface. Finally, a second distributed Bragg-reflector 42, i.e., dielectric mirror structure is deposited on the second contact layer 28.
