Journal ArticleDOI
Nonreciprocal waveguide Bragg gratings.
TL;DR: A systematic analytical and numerical analysis of a new class of Bragg gratings which exhibits a strong amplification at the resonance wavelength (even with zero net-gain level in the waveguide) while simultaneously providing higher wavelength selectivity than the equivalent index Bragg grating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design, analysis, and transmission system performance of a 41 GHz silicon photonic modulator.
David Patel,Samir Ghosh,Mathieu Chagnon,Alireza Samani,Venkat Veerasubramanian,Mohamed Osman,David V. Plant +6 more
TL;DR: With the use of multi-level amplitude modulation formats and digital-signal-processing, the modulator is shown to operate below a hard-decision forward error-correction threshold of 3.8×10-3 at bitrates up to 112 Gbps over 2 km of single mode optical fiber using PAM-4, and over 5 km of optical fiber with PAM -8.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal differentiation of optical signals using a phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating.
TL;DR: The proposed device can calculate the first time derivative of the complex field of an arbitrary narrowband optical waveform with a very high accuracy and efficiency and demonstrate the high performance of this device by processing gigahertz-bandwidth phase and intensity optical temporal variations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of thermo-optic phase-shifter design and mitigation of thermal crosstalk on the SOI platform.
TL;DR: Doped-Si-based heaters are the most practical and efficient on standard SOI and the layout density of highly integrated dies is optimized, and internal and external thermal crosstalk for tunable Mach-Zehnder interferometers is experimentally characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of 112 Gb/s short reach transmission employing PAM formats and SiP intensity modulator at 1.3 μm.
Mathieu Chagnon,Mohamed Osman,Michel Poulin,C. Latrasse,Jean-Frédéric Gagné,Yves Painchaud,Carl Paquet,Stephane Lessard,David V. Plant +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PAM order selection can be optimally chosen as a function of the desired throughput and the ability of the proposed transmitter to exhibit software-defined transmission for short reach applications by selecting Pam order, symbol rate and pulse shape is demonstrated.
