ABSTRACT:
An electro-absorption modulator integrated with a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL). An electro-absorption modulator (EAM) is integrated or grown on a VCSEL. The electro-absorption modulator may be separated from the VCSEL by a semi-insulating or nonconducting layer. Contacts on the EAM can bias the EAM such that light emitted by the VCSEL is selectively absorbed. Thus, the VCSEL can emit a constant wave light that is modulated by the integrated EAM.
