Abstract
A mode-multiplexed transmitter combining a 2-D VCSEL matrix on a Si interposer and a multi-plane light converter is demonstrated. This enables 200-Gb/s transmission using 10G-class VCSELs over 100-m multimode fiber with direct detection and 28-km few-mode fiber with coherent detection.

Bibliographical note
Funding Information:We demonstrated 200-Gb/s line rate transmission over 100-m OM3 MMF and 28-km FMF employing a 2-D VCSEL matrix based 10-mode-multiplexed Tx which has a total power consumption <1 W. Arranging the VCSEL wavelengths provides Rx flexibility to use either DSP-free direct detection or coherent detection to satisfy the cost and reach requirements from different applications. The results confirm the potential of employing spatial multiplexing to scale CPO and transceiver capacity while reducing cost per bit and power consumption through integration and component parallelism[14].
