Abstract:

The PI developed silicon photonic coherent receivers that operate at 40 Gbaud and can handle advanced modulation formats by the cointegration of a passive 90 degree optical hybrid, high-speed balanced Ge photodetectors and a high-speed two-channel trans impedance amplifier. The device has record performance for an integrated silicon photonic receiver, both in terms of bitrate 160Gbits per wavelength and per polarization as well as in terms of power consumption. This makes the device very appealing for integration into larger modules, combining both wavelength and space division multiplexing to reach multiple Tbs receiver modules.
