980nm vertical cavity surface emitting laser had been fabricated, and the pulse operation with high output power had also been realized at room temperature (24℃). With 5/1000 duty cycle and 50 μs pulse duration, the maximum optical output power was 380 mW for 400 μm diameter device. The divergence angle was less than 10°, and the FWHM of lasing spectrum was 0.8 nm.
