“…In integrated microwave photonics, many key RF functions have been demonstrated using on-chip photonic signal processors, including spectral filters [9][10][11], phase shifters [12], integrators [13], differentiators [14], pulse shapers [15,16], frequency discriminators [17,18], tunable delay lines [19,20], and beamformers [21,22]. Next to the general advantages of photonic integration in terms of device size, robustness, power efficiency, and low-cost potential [23][24][25][26], some salient works showed remarkable features such as THz processing bandwidths [27], subvolt control [28], filter extinction ratios greater than 60 dB [29], and multioctave continuous frequency shifting [19].…”
