Successful 54 Gbit/s on–off keying (OOK) transmission over 2.2 km of multimode OM4 fibre is demonstrated. The decisive advantages of the single mode over multimode vertical cavity surface emitting ...laser (VCSEL) in transmission experiments are shown.
High‐speed discrete multitone serial data transmission over multi‐mode fibre at gross data rates up to 224 Gbit/s achieved with directly modulated oxide‐confined vertical cavity surface emitting ...lasers at 850 and 910 nm are presented.
Oxide-confined vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) with anti-waveguiding AlAs-rich core presently attract a lot of attention. Anti-waveguiding cavity enables the maximum possible optical ...confinement of the VCSEL mode ("λ/2 design"), increases its oscillator strength and reduces dramatically the optical power accumulated in the VCSEL mesa regions outside the aperture. VCSEL designs are suggested that favor single transverse mode operation. Modeling including current-induced and absorption-induced overheating shows that the preference for the transverse fundamental mode persists up to 10 mA current at 5 µm aperture diameter. Error-free data transmission is realized up to 160 Gb/s in digital-multitone (DMT) format using single-mode anti-waveguiding VCSELs. The approach to single-mode anti-waveguiding VCSELs is extended over a broad spectral range realizing error-free high-speed data transmission at both 850 nm and 910 nm.

Historically optical links up to 100-300m distances are served by light emitting devices in the 850 nm spectral range in combination with multimode glass fibers (MMF). As the silicon scaling ...continues, a single channel data rate is to double each 24 months. Light-emitting diodes had to be replaced by vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and the data rate increased from 100 Mb/s to 10 Gb/s. At higher data rates problems with further scaling evolved. To avoid the collapse an anti-waveguiding VCSEL cavity design was invented, applied, and presently serves data links operating up to 50-100 Gb/s per channel. Another requirement in data communication is the bandwidth density scaling, with the number of channels per link increasing approximately 5-fold each 10 years, while keeping a similar space for connectors. A coarse short-wavelength division multiplexing allowing 850 nm, 880 nm, 910 nm, and 940 nm wavelengths in a single MMF is introduced. The bandwidth density increase is also possible by using multicore fiber (MCF) coupled to on-chip VCSEL arrays. The data rates up to 224 Gb/s are already reached by 850nm VCSELs. At such data rates significant transmission distance over MMF is only possible by applying ultra-narrow spectrum VCSELs minimizing the chromatic dispersion effects. On-chip mini-arrays of oxide-confined VCSELs allow a high coupling efficiency to MMFs, a narrow spectrum, a high power, a significant transmission distance at high data rates. Coherent lasing in such arrays allow photon-photon resonance engineering aimed at modulation bandwidths ∼50-100 GHz.
In this article, we report on energy efficient (6.2 mW/Gbit/s) transmitter and receiver assemblies capable of NRZ 80 Gbit/s and 72 Gbit/s fiber data transmission through 2 and 50 m of MMF, ...respectively. The optical link studied consisted of a 130 nm BiCMOS driver and transimpedance amplifier, ~30 GHz VCSEL, and ~27 GHz PD.
Dispersion in the multimode fibres (MMF) limits the transmission distance of the modern data communication networks. The authors show that the use of single-mode (SM) vertical cavity surface emitting ...lasers (VCSELs) in combination with the receiver module of a commercially available transceiver can increase the transmission distance to several kilometres. They report 25.78 Gbit/s error-free transmission over 1800 m of multimode fibre with 850 nm and 1400 m with 910 nm SM VCSELs. Data transmission up to 2600 and 2400 m can be achieved with BER below 3.8×10−3 forward error correction limit accordingly. The use of multiple wavelengths demonstrates the opportunity to increase the capacity of MMF links with shortwave wavelength division multiplexing.
In this letter, we demonstrate low complexity dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) over a ~ 40-km standard single-mode fiber transmission system in the 1310-nm wavelength domain with a total ...transmission capacity up to 400 Gb/s. The demonstrated system is based exclusively on semiconductor components without any form of dispersion compensation. The system showed excellent performance. The presented results prove that the 1310-nm wavelength domain can support low cost and low complexity high-speed transmission with the wide range applications like the future 400G+ Ethernet.
By combing Zn-diffusion and oxide-relief apertures with strong detuning (>20 nm) in our demonstrated short-cavity (λ/2) 850-nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs), wide ...electrical-to-optical bandwidth (29-24 GHz), low-differential resistance (~100 Q), and (quasi) single-mode (SM) with reasonable output power (~1.4 mW) performances can be simultaneously achieved. Error-free ON-OFF keying transmission at 54-Gb/s data rate through 1-km OM4 multi-mode fiber can be achieved by using highly SM device with forward error correction and decision feedback equalization techniques. As compared with the reference device with a larger oxide-relief aperture and a multi-mode performance, the SM device exhibits lower bit-error rate (1 × 10 -5 versus 1 × 10 -2 ) at 54 Gb/s. This result indicates that modal dispersion plays more important role in transmission than that of output power does. We benchmark these results to an industrial 50-Gb/s SM VCSEL. It shows a higher bit-error-rate value ~3.5×10 -3 versus ~1.4×10 -4 under the same received optical power.
In this letter a reconfigurable remote access unit (RAU) is proposed and demonstrated, interfacing dense wavelength division multiplexed (DWDM) optical and W-band wireless links. The RAU is composed ...of a tunable local oscillator, a narrow optical filter, and a control unit, making it reconfigurable via software. The RAU allows selection of a DWDM channel and tuning of the radio carrier frequency. Real-time transmission results at 2.5 Gbit/s and performance measurements with offline data processing at 4 and 5 Gbit/s are presented. Error free real-time transmission was achieved after 15 km of standard single mode fiber and 50 m of wireless transmission with carriers between 75 and 95 GHz.
A physical-layer secure data encryption algorithm is proposed and demonstrated using chaotic constellation mapping associated with probabilistic shaping (PS) for orthogonal frequency division ...multiplexing passive optical networks (OFDM-PONs). The constellation of the encrypted data is uniformly distributed after chaotic diffusion in quadratic-amplitude modulation (QAM) mapping, to eliminate the statistical characteristics, where a key space of ~10 231 is created by a 4-dimensional hyper digital chaos. Moreover, PS is introduced to improve the OFDM signal transmission. A 9.4 Gb/s encrypted PS-16-QAM OFDM signal transmission is successfully demonstrated over 20 km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF), where the gain of receiver sensitivity is ~2 dB (bit-error rate @ 10 −3 ) using PS.
