Monolithic 1 × 8 DWDM Silicon Optical Transmitter Using an Arrayed-Waveguide Grating and Electro-Absorption Modulators for Switch Fabrics in Intra-Data-Center Interconnects
In this study, we propose an eight-channel monolithic optical transmitter using silicon electro-absorption modulators (EAMs) based on free-carrier injection by Schottky junctions. The transmitter consists of a 1 × 8 silicon arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) and eight 500-μm-long EAMs on a 5.41 × 2.84...
