Plasma Dicing of GaAs VCSELs
Compound semiconductors have attracted a lot of attention as post-Si semiconductors in various fields such as high frequency, light, and power devices become more popular. Among them, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are now key optical sources in gigabit ethernet high-speed optical-area networks and computer links, due to their low threshold current and small structure. Panasonic will introduce its latest developments in dry etching processes, especially the application of plasma dicing for GaAs VCSEL wafers.
