The first observation of near-UV vertical-cavity stimulated emission from a photopumped GaN epilayer at room temperature is reported. The epilayer was deposited over AIN-coated basal plane sapphire substrate using low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Epitaxy quality of a 1.5-micron-thick GaN layer was high enough to achieve stimulated emission at room temperature. The observed near-UV optical emission power was a nonlinear function of the pump power density. At threshold power density, line narrowing and a shift of the peak UV emission toward longer wavelengths were also observed. Data comparing the UV emission for the vertical-cavity and the edge emission geometry are also presented.
