Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser With a Chiral Nematic Liquid Crystal Overlay

We demonstrate measurement results of the light emission of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with chiral liquid crystal (CLC) overlay (CLC-VCSEL). Two different CLC materials with different chiral-phase temperature range are presented and compared. The CLC layer acts as an external c...
