| Abstract | High-speed directly modulated diode lasers are important for optical communications and optical interconnects. In this work, we demonstrate greatly enhanced resonance frequency for vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers, from 7 to 50 GHz, under ultrahigh injection-locking conditions. In addition, a 20-dB gain is achieved for small signal modulation below resonance frequency. |
