Title: VCSEL Review 2：Principle, Device Physics, and Merits for Applications

Abstract ：In this review talk, we will trace the development of the vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEs) from its conception by the author in 1977 to their significant role in today's social life. We will begin with explaining the basic concept of the VCSEL, followed by a discussion on its principle. We learn principal device physics, including resonant cavities, active regions, highly reflective distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) and high-contrast grating (HCG) reflectors, threshold conditions, power output, direct modulation, noise, and arrays. From a device perspective, we will explore the technologies of current and optical confinement. We will then introduce the advantages and characteristics of VCSELs for various applications. Finally, we will highlight the key features of these applications and how their underlying principles are utilized in communication and sensing technologies. If time permits, we will also discuss on micro-cavities and photon behavior connecting to quantum technology.

Title: High Speed HCG VCSELs

Abstract: Multimode vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) are attractive for short-reach optical interconnects used in data centers and AI computing due to their low power consumption and cost effectiveness. However, the modulation bandwidth bottleneck as well as the chromatic dispersion are limiting VCSEL’s transmission volume and distance. High contrast meta-surface (HCM) technology such as high contrast grating (HCG) could be used to control the transverse modes, enhance the bandwidth and improve the beam quality. HCG VCSEL’s supreme advantages in 3D sensing and high-power application will also be discussed.

Title: Modulation of VCSELs: Breaking the Limit of Relaxation Oscillation
Abstract: Rapid expanding applications such as AI-related computation have exacerbated demands for higher modulation speed of semiconductor lasers such as VCSELS. At the same time, design optimization for high-speed modulation of semiconductor lasers has reached the saturation stage where significant progress in modulation speed becomes more and more difficult. It is high time to focus on different mechanisms and go beyond the limit imposed by the relaxation oscillation. In this talk, experimental as well as simulation results exploring inter-mode and inter-VCSEL couplings would be presented.

Title: Perspective on Future VCSEL Transmission over Anti-resonant Hollow-core Fiber

Abstract: With the brust of AI large model, conventional data centers are now transforming into intelligent computing centers with more GPUs and network devices responsible for interconnections. Due to the rapidly increasing scale of GPUs, the transmission distance and capacity grow simultaneously. VCSEL, as the dominant optical module option for DCN, is facing great pressure from other approaches like Silicon photonics (SiFo) due to its reach limitation. The fundamental problem comes from the extremely impure data channel of multimode fiber (MMF). Antiresonant hollow-core fiber (AR-HCF) have witnessed steady progress in attenuation reduction (<0.1dB/km), as well as additional advantages like ultra-low nonlinearity, ultra-wide transmission window, low chromatic dispersion, and minimum latency, showing great potential on providing extremely pure data channel. In this talk, the concept of VCSEL transmission over AR-HCF will be introduced, featuring the benefits of extending VCSEL transmission reach and lowering overall latency.
