Operation of 2-dimensional arrays os 1.3-/spl mu/m surface-emitting lasers transferred onto a Si motherboard utilizing a AuSn soldering

The experimental parameters for the soldering of an InP wafer onto a Si substrate have been optimised and used for the fabrication of matrices of 1.3-μm VCSELs. The lasers operate at room temperature under pulsed injection; characteristics of such a 3×3 array will be presented.
