Error-free 46 Gbit/s operation of oxideconfined 980 nm VCSELs at 85 degree C

A new design of an oxide-confined 980 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) particularly well-suited for very-short-reach ( similar to 2 m and shorter) optical interconnects is presented. A new record for temperature-stable high bit rate VCSELs is achieved. An error-free data transmiss...

Description
Summary:A new design of an oxide-confined 980 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) particularly well-suited for very-short-reach ( similar to 2 m and shorter) optical interconnects is presented. A new record for temperature-stable high bit rate VCSELs is achieved. An error-free data transmission at 46 Gbit/s is achieved up to a record-high temperature of 85 degree C. The maximum bit rate and -- 3 dB bandwidth at room temperature are 50 Gbit/s and 24.7 GHz, respectively.
