  • Delivery Date Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser OSFP

    Delivery Date Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser OSFP

    Because VCSELs emit from the top surface of the chip, they can be tested on-wafer, before they are cleaved into individual devices. This reduces the cost of the devices. It also allows VCSELs to be built not only in one-dimensional, but also in two-dimensional arrays. The larger output aperture of VCSELs, compared to most edge-emitting lasers, produces a lower divergence angle of the output beam, and makes possible high coupling efficiency with optical fibers.
