Abstract
We report the small-signal characterization of a PCSEL device, extracting damping factors and modulation efficiencies, and demonstrating -3 dB modulation bandwidths of up to 4.26 GHz. Based on modelling we show that, by reducing the device width and improving the active region design for high-speed modulation, direct modulation frequencies in excess of 50 GHz are achievable.
