Abstract

Summary form only given. Optical communication links between 100 meters and 10 kilometers will require new cost effective transceiver solutions. We have demonstrated single mode and high-speed modulation in long wavelength VCSELs with low threshold current. Research is ongoing to improve high temperature characteristics and high-speed performance optimization. Coupled with component and packaging development, we plan to release Honeywell´s first commercially available long wavelength VCSELs by 2003.
