Abstract
High-speed studies of packaged, submilliampere threshold, oxide-confin ed vertical cavity surface emitting lasers show modulation bandwidths > 16 GHz. Very high modulation current efficiency factors occur at low bias but decrease as the modulation bandwidth and frequency of the re lative intensity noise peak saturate at higher currents.
