ABSTRACTVertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with suitable interdiffusion quantum wells profile by the use of selective impurity-induced disordering is proposed for high power single mode operation in large area devices. It is shown that the transverse optical confinement in the quantum well active region formed by the diffusion profile counteracts the influence of carrier spatial hole burning for VCSELs biased at high injection current Results indicate that a single mode operation can be maintained in VCSELs with the diameter of core region equal to 50μm.

AbstractVertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) have emerged as a vital approach for realizing energy-efficient and high-speed optical interconnects in the data centers and supercomputers. Indeed, VCSELs are the most suitable mass production lasers in terms of cost-effectiveness and reliability. However, there are still key challenges that prevent achieving modulation speeds beyond 30s GHz. Here, we propose a novel VCSEL design of a hexagonal transverse-coupled-cavity adiabatically coupled through a central cavity. Following this scheme, we show a prototype demonstrating a 3-dB roll-off modulation bandwidth of 45 GHz, which is five times greater than a conventional VCSEL fabricated on the same epiwafer structure. This design harnesses the Vernier effect to increase the laser’s aperture and therefore is capable of maintaining single-mode operation of the laser for high injection currents, hence extending the dynamic roll-off point and offering increases power output. Simultaneously, extending both the laser modulation speed and output power for this heavily deployed class of lasers opens up new opportunities and fields of use ranging from data-comm to sensing, automotive, and photonic artificial intelligence systems.
