Abstract

In this paper, the enhanced high-speed performance and energy-efficiency of 1.3 μm Short-Cavity VCSEL with buried-tunnel-junction is reported. Error-free data-transmission at 30 Gb/s up to 10 km and at 25 Gb/s up to 25 km is performed at room temperature over single mode fiber. Furthermore, low energy-to-data-distance ratios of 24 fJ/(bit·km) are achieved.
