Abstract: Novel semiconductor edge and vertical surface emitting lasers and amplifiers based on nanostructures present the physical layer of future communication systems which demand larger and larger bandwidths up to multi Tb/sec and dramatically increased energy efficiency. InGaAs/GaAs-based VCSELs are enabling devices for short distance interconnects at wavelengths between 850 and 1300 nm. InGaAs quantum wells and/or stacked “submonolayer growth quantum dots” (SML-QDs) are used as active medium in these VCSELs. SML-QD based VCSELs exhibit an excellent temperature stability, which is one requirement to avoid gain saturation under strong electrical pumping for high photon densities and high bandwidth operation. The devices emitting at 980 nm show open eyes for 38 Gbit/s up to 85 °C and 49 Gbit/s operation at -14°C . At 850 nm we demonstrated open eyes with good S/N ratio up to ~40 Gbit/s . Such lasers show now a record low power dissipation of 59 fJ/bit at 25 Gbit/s at 25 Gbit/s . This number is equivalent to 59 mW/Tbit and thus below the magical limit of 100 mW/Tbit required by the ITRS roadmap for 2015.Electro-optical resonance modulation of VCSELs with a monolithically integrated electro-optical modulator allow intrinsic modulation bandwidth beyond 50 GHz and might allow datacom beyond 100 Gbit/s with one single device with still increased energy efficiency .
