Vertical-cavity Surface-emitting Lasers, commonly known as VCSEL, have a wide range of applications. The laser can be fabricated in various ways, including on the surface or within arrays. The key distinction that distinguishes the #VCSEL from other lasers is that it emits light from the top rather than the edges, as other lasers do.

This guarantees that the output power is optimum. Moreover, this is often in the shape of a circular beam of light which is highly compatible with modern optical instruments.

In this article, we will look at the applications of VCSEL in various industries such as communication, sensors, and computing.
