Tailored Transverse Mode Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser: Hollow Laser Beam Emission through Circle Aperture

Vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers that can be controlled to emit hollow laser beam in certain LP<sub>21</sub> mode are proposed and fabricated. A circular inverted surface relief with precisely designed diameter and thickness is introduced through theoretical simulation. The fabric...
