Abstract
In this work, we have proposed a multi-beam-interferometer-assistant SOA-PIN (MBIA-SOA-PIN) photodetector aiming at achieving a high sensitivity and a high wavelength drift tolerance by reducing the SOA’s amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise through a finite impulse response (FIR)-type filter. Our simulation results show that the MBIA-SOA-PIN photodetector has a wavelength drift tolerance of ±1.92 nm, and a sensitivity of -18.2 dBm at a bit-error-rate (BER) of 10-12 under a data rate of 240 Gbps. Compared with the GA-SOA-PIN photodetector which has the best performance among various types of photodetectors ever reported, the MBIA-SOA-PIN photodetector improves the wavelength drift tolerance and reduces the sensitivity dependence on polarization, at the trade-off of slightly lowering the sensitivity for TE polarized signals.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics is dedicated to the publication of manuscripts reporting novel experimental or theoretical results in the broad field of the science and technology of quantum electronics. The Journal comprises original contributions, both regular papers and letters, describing significant advances in the understanding of quantum electronics phenomena or the demonstration of new devices, systems, or applications. Manuscripts reporting new developments in systems and applications must emphasize quantum electronics principles or devices. The scope of JQE encompasses the generation, propagation, detection, and application of coherent electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths below one millimeter (i.e., in the submillimeter, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, etc., regions). Whether the focus of a manuscript is a quantum-electronic device or phenomenon, the critical factor in the editorial review of a manuscript is the potential impact of the results presented on continuing research in the field or on advancing the technological base of quantum electronics.
