10-Gb/s modulation speed and transmission over 10-km SM fiber with BER < 10(-11) up to 100 degrees C temperature are achieved with optimized wafer-fused GaAs/AlGaAs-InP/InAlGaAs VCSELs incorporating re-grown tunnel junction. These VCSELs operate in the 1310-nm waveband and emit more than 1-mW single mode power in the full temperature range.
