摘要
Extremely energy-efficient oxide-confined high-speed 850 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers for optical interconnects are presented. Error-free performance at 17 and 25 Gb/s via a 100 m multimode fiber link is demonstrated at record high dissipation-power-efficiencies of up to 69 fJ/bit (<0.1 mW/Gbps) and 99 fJ/bit, respectively. These are the most power efficient high-speed directly modulated light sources reported to date. The total energy-to-data ratio is 83 fJ/bit at 25 degrees C and reduces to 81 fJ/bit at 55 degrees C. These results were obtained without adjustment of driving conditions. A high D-factor of 12.0 GHz/(mA)(0.5) and a K-factor of 0.41 ns are measured. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics.
