Abstract
Vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) arrays are designed and used for 10-channel parallel optical data links, OPTOBUS(TM), to transmit data at a speed of up to 800 Mbits/s per channel. The interface between the VCSE Ls and the optical fiber ribbons is based on molded plastic waveguide techn ology. A bit error rate of 10(-15) is demonstrated, (C) 1998 Society of Pho to-Optical Instrumentation Engineers. [S0091-3286(98)01212-4].
