  • Abstract
    The paper reports on the development of VCSELs emitting near to 650 nm for low cost links employing PMMA based polymer optical fibre (POF). AlGaInP/AlGaAs VCSELs are fabricated on wafers from two different MOCVD sources. Accelerated ageing tests are done for the two types of devices.
