Etched-pillar vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser structures have been fabricated incorporating sidewall sulphide passivation to reduce the surface recombination velocity at the exposed quantum well edges. The passivated devices exhibit a 25% reduction in surface recombination velocity and a minimum 0.67 mA threshold current.
