A novel fabrication process related to a smoothly wet chemical etching profile o f InP-based epitaxial layers in the crystal direction of [01for an InP-based monol ithic vertically integrated transmitter with an MQW laser diode and a heterojunction bipolar tran sistors driver circuit is described.A clear eye output diagram via an O/E converter is demonstrat ed und er a 1.25Gb/s non-return-zero pseudorandom code with a pattern length of 2 the integrated transmitter has a power dissipation of about 120mW with an optical output of 2dBm.
The vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) arrays and VCSEL-based optical transmission modules are investigated.It includes the VCSEL's spectral characteristic,modulation characteristic,high frequency characteristic,and compatibility with microelectronic circuit.The module consists of 1×16 VCSEL array and 16-channel lasers driver with 0.35μm CMOS circuit by hybrid integration.During the test process,the module operates well at more than 2GHz in -3dB frequency bandwidth.
