Abstract: High-bandwidth lasers having minimized parasitic responses are described herein. In some embodiments, the present invention may be directed to a laser having a minimized parasitic response that is achieved by decreasing the active resistance of the laser's active region and decreasing the active capacitance of the laser. For example, the laser may include an active region having an active resistance as well as mirror regions, where the mirror regions have average dopant densities that decrease the active resistance of the active region and decrease the active capacitance of the laser. By decreasing the active resistance and the active capacitance, the −3 dB frequency of the parasitic response is increased. By increasing the −3 dB frequency of the parasitic response, a total response of the laser (e.g., a combination of an intrinsic response and the parasitic response) has a higher −3 dB frequency, thereby allowing the laser to operate at higher bandwidths.

Abstract: Quantum systems, devices, and methods are described herein that enable quantum metrology. An example quantum device includes a first quantum measurement module operably coupled with a first quantum system. The first quantum measurement module applies one or more measurements to the first quantum system and obtains first information associated with the first quantum system based on the one or more measurements. The quantum device further includes a first quantum memory structure operably coupled with the first quantum measurement module. A coherence time window associated with the first quantum memory structure is greater than a coherence time window time associated with the first quantum system. The quantum devices and associated memory structures provide a new methodology for a quantum metrology system.

Abstract: A method and system for large scale Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) binning from wafers to be compatible with a Clock-Data Recovery Unit (CDRU) and/or a VCSEL driver are provided. An illustrative method of binning is provided that includes: for at least a portion of VCSELs on a wafer, measuring a set of representative parameters of the VCSELs, of predetermined DC or small-signal values, and sorting the measured VCSELs into clusters according to the measured set of representative parameters of the VCSELs; further sorting the clusters into sub-groups that comply with specifications of the VCSEL driver; and providing a feedback signal to the CDRU for equalizing control signals provided to the VCSEL driver.

Abstract: A vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) is provided. The VCSEL includes a mesa structure disposed on a substrate. The mesa structure includes a first reflector, a second reflector, and an active cavity material structure disposed between the first and second reflectors. The second reflector has an opening extending from a second surface of the second reflector into the second reflector by a predetermined depth. Etching into the second reflector to the predetermined depth reduces the photon lifetime and the threshold gain of the VCSEL, while increasing the modulation bandwidth and maintaining the high reflectivity of the second reflector. Thus, etching the second reflector to the predetermined depth provides an improvement in overshoot control, broader modulation bandwidth, and faster pulsing of the VCSEL such that the VCSEL may provide a high speed, high bandwidth signal with controlled overshoot.

Abstract: A layout for a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) is provided. In an example embodiment, the layout comprises a VCSEL, an etched shape around a mesa of the VCSEL, a signal contact layer deposited on section of the mesa, and a ground contact layer. The ground contact layer comprises three parts and is positioned around a first section of the etched shape. The first part of the ground contact layer is deposited on a second section of the etched shape. The second and third parts of the ground contact layer comprise two legs off of the first part. The two legs are symmetrically positioned about two sides of the signal contact layer to form a ground-signal-ground configuration.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and associated methods are described that provide signal transmission over copper media. An example module includes a number of electrical signal generators that each generate an electrical signal, and a signal modulation system that receives the electrical signals generated by the electrical signal generators. The signal modulation system further modulates each of the electrical signals such that each modulated electrical signal is distinguishable from the other modulated electrical signals. The module further includes an active copper multiplexer in electrical communication with the electrical signal generators that receives the modulated electrical signals from the signal modulation system. The active copper multiplexer further combines the multiple modulated signals into a single combined electrical signal and transmits the single combined electrical signal through a single copper cable.

Abstract: A vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VSCEL) and method for producing a VCSEL are described, the VCSEL including an undercut active region. The active region of the VCSEL is undercut relative to current-spreading layers of the VCSEL, such that a width of a tunnel junction of the VCSEL overgrown by a current spreading layer is less than a width of an active region of the VCSEL, and a width of the active region of the VCSEL is less than a width of the overgrown current-spreading layer, such that the VCSEL including the undercut active region is configured to transmit data at speeds greater than 25 gigabits/second.
