Demonstration of 125-Gbps optical interconnects integrated with lasers, optical splitters, optical modulators and photodetectors on a single silicon substrate

Abstract: One of the most serious issues in information industries is the bandwidth bottleneck in inter-chip interconnects. We propose a photonics-electronics convergence system to solve this issue. We fabricated a high density optical interposer to demonstrate the feasibility of the system by using silicon photonics integrated with an arrayed laser diode, an optical splitter, silicon optical modulators, germanium photodetectors, and silicon optical waveguides on a single silicon substrate. Error-free data transmission … Show more

“…The laser diode is described using a current-controlled current source where the output current I LD is a function of input current I source . The dissipation current to ground represents coupling loss in the spot size converter that has a transmission efficiency SSC ¼ 0:59 (−2.3 dB) [2]. The parameters of a silicon optical modulator consisting of PIN diodes were taken from Ref.…”

“…The electrical-to-optical (EO) converter in the equivalent circuit expresses the modulation of the input light from the laser diode by the electrical signal from the driver. The behavior of the EO converter depends on the characteristics of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer and its excessive loss as given by the following equation mod I SSC ð1 þ C pin V pin =Q Þ=2, in which I mod is modulated equivalent current, mod ¼ 0:52 (−2.8 dB) [2] is optical excessive loss, and V pin is the voltage to diode capacitance C pin [13]. The dissipation current to ground represents propagating loss in the optical waveguide with a transmission efficiency WG ¼ 0:60 (−2.2 dB) [2].…”
