A GaAs/AlGaAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with resonant periodic gain has been grown by metal-organic chemical vapour deposition. The as-grown structure exhibits an optically pumped CW threshold below 15 mW at 300 K and a single-ended power efficiency up to 45%. Fundamental Gaussian and higher-order modes are observed with spectral widths (FWH M) as low as 0.27 Å.
