Abstract
A matrix-vector multiplication (MVM) optical signal processor based on mode division multiplexing (MDM) was proposed and demonstrated in the current work, which is composed of a mode multiplexer, a multimode beam splitter, a mode demultiplexer, a modulator array and combiners. In addition, the characteristics of MDM obviate the need for multiple wavelengths and therefore multiple laser light sources are unneeded, which greatly reduces the complexity and cost. A 4 × 4 MDM-MVM was realized on a standard silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform. Combined with the off-chip light source and photodetectors (PDs), 4-level modulation has been demonstrated, and each level of the output signal could represent 2 bits of information.
