Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VC-SELs) have been studied for several years and matured to the point that lend itself to some practical system applications. The advantage of VC-SELs over their conventional edge emitting counterpart comes from their unique topology which allows their two dimensional array fabrication and testing without cleaving of the semiconductor material. The 2-D integration is also made possible by the VG-SELs low threshold current with less than 20mW electrical power dissipation. The 8x18 array of VC-SELs is shown.<>
