Abstract
Extensive VCSEL reliability enhancements have been carried out at Emcore in the past year with significant results. In this talk, we will present the failure mechanisms, the method and effectiveness of wafer and die screening, and the approaches to eliminate these failure mechanisms. Results of improved reliability will also be discussed.
