Abstract :
A novel high-speed, bottom-emitting, flip-chipped vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) structure with reduced constraints on modulation bandwidth is designed based on high-speed, fabrication and characterization. Results from top-emitting devices are reported. Benefits of the proposed structure are presented.
