Summary One of the current aims of nanotechnology is the replacement of ‘slow’ electronic devices with ‘fast’ photonic (light based) ones. Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) are a promising technology for optical devices as they are compact, inexpensive and power efficient. VCSELs have the second highest production...
