Abstract :
Summary form only given. Single channel as well as one-dimensional fiber ribbonized parallel interconnect modules for data rates up to a few Gb/s per channel using vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are already on the market. For very high speed data transmission at data rates above 10 Gb/s per channel the noise behavior of the transmitter becomes more and more important. Here we study single- and multi-mode selectively oxidised VCSELs emitting at 850 and 980 nm wavelength designed, fabricated and mounted for very high speed operation.
