The surface emission from a bulk semiconductor at ultra-low temperature and magnetic carrier confinement was reported by Ivars Melngailis in 1965. The first proposal of short VCSEL was done by Kenichi Iga of Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1977. Contrary to the conventional Fabry-Perot edge-emitting semiconductor lasers, his invention comprises a short laser cavity less than 1/10 of the edge-emitting lasers vertical to a wafer s.

In this tutorial, we demonstrate optical modulation using an electroabsorbtion modulator. Woodward et al, "Modulator-Driver Circuits for Optoelectronic VLSI," IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, June 1997. An electro-absorption modulator (EAM) is a semiconductor device which can be used for modulating the intensity of a laser beam via an electric voltage. Its main advantages are a small footprint, low power consumption (hence lower capacitance) and high-speed operation 1. These transmissions systems use plug-in optical transceivers called XFP modules to convert electrical signals to the opt cal signals that are sent over optical fibers.
