Abstract
The radiation power from active area into the planar waveguide has been studied theoretically in order to model VCSEL characteristics. Exact and simple quantitative connection between modal gain and spontaneous emission into planar waveguide has been established. The possibility of the in-plane lasing in the conventional VCSEL with gain area laterally limited by gain aperture has been examined and condition required for this has been found.
