Ultrafast pulse-amplitude modulation with a femtojoule silicon photonic modulator
Ultrahigh-speed optical interconnects are essential to future cloud computing. Further increase in optical transmission speed has been hindered by power consumption and limited bandwidth resources, for which integrated optical transceivers using advanced modulation formats, such as pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM), are a promising solution. We report 80 Gb∕s PAM operation of a silicon microring...
متن کاملUltrafast, All-Silicon Light Modulator
The ability to send high-speed messages between integrated circuit devices requires both high-frequency receivers and transmitters. The vast majority of integrated circuits are made from silicon-based semiconductors. Suitable receivers of silicon integrated circuits can be constructed from either metal-semiconductor-metal photodiodesl or P-type, intrinsic, N-type (PIN) photodiodes. These receiv...
متن کاملUltrafast all-optical graphene modulator.
Graphene is an optical material of unusual characteristics because of its linearly dispersive conduction and valence bands and the strong interband transitions. It allows broadband light-matter interactions with ultrafast responses and can be readily pasted to surfaces of functional structures for photonic and optoelectronic applications. Recently, graphene-based optical modulators have been de...
متن کاملUltrafast All-Optical Switching by Cross Phase Modulation Induced Wavelength Conversion in Silicon-on-Insulator Waveguides and Ring Resonators
We present new results on ultrafast alloptical wavelength conversion in Silicon-onInsulator waveguides through cross phase modulation. We demonstrate sub-picosecond all-optical switching with 13dB on/off ratio by combining the nonlinear wavelength conversion in the port waveguide with passive filtering using an integrated SOI microring resonator. Introduction Because of its potential for integr...
متن کاملUltrafast all-optical wavelength conversion in Silicon- on-Insulator waveguides by means of Cross Phase
In this paper we report the ultrafast all-optical wavelength conversion in Silicon-onInsulator (SOI) waveguides. We used a pump-probe setup with 300 femtosecond pulses to demonstrate large temporal phase-shifts, caused by the Kerr effect and free carrier generation. Large wavelength shifts of a 1683nm probe signal have been observed. The wavelength conversion, ranging from 10nm redshifts to 15n...
