Panasonic Develops VCSEL Laser with Surface Plasmon Mirrors

Panasonic today announced the development of a novel VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) utilizing an epoch-making physical phenomenon called as surface plasmon resonance. This is the world first demonstration of high output power in the VCSEL taking advantage of the surface plasmon resonance. The laser is applicable to practical high speed and short distance optical communication such as optical interconnection and plastic fiber communication.
