In this presentation, we provide an introduction that recently semiconductor lasers have attracted much attention as light sources in illumination and display applications. We then review a current status of a nitride-based vertical cavity surface emitting laser which is one of the most suitable semiconductor lasers, and describe our approaches to improve the device performances.
