Abstract: | A 3-D thermal analysis of 870 nm high-index-contrast grating (HCG)-based vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) by using finite volume method (FVM) is presented in this paper. The HCG-based VCSEL is modeled by applying a steady-state 3-D heat dissipation model. Temperature distribution profile and thermal resistance (Rth) of the device are investigated by inserting the heat source value into the thermal simulation. Also, this analysis is performed for a conventional VCSEL operating at the same wavelength and under the same injected current as well as the same geometric sizes. The analysis shows that the maximum temperature inside the HCG-based VCSEL is lower than that inside the conventional VCSEL. |
