Abstract
The high-speed modulation characteristics of helium-implanted zinc-diffused vertical cavity surface emitting semiconductor lasers are measured. Devices with a nominal active region diameter of 10 and 20 mu m exhibit a move-out rate of 4.5-6.5 GHz/mW/sup 1/2/ and a K factor of 0.65-0.85 ns. Maximum modulation frequency is limited by ohmic heating to approximately 5.5 GHz for 10- mu m diameter lasers and to 2.7 GHz for 20- mu m diameter lasers. A rolloff in the response below the relaxation oscillation frequency is observed and is explained well by a diffusion capacitance model.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
