An epitaxial design with a half-lambda optical cavity surrounded by only two oxide-current apertures as small as 2-micrometer in diameter leads to highly confined optical fields and carriers and to a record 29.3-GHz small-signal modulation bandwidth at room temperature for 980-nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers.

We present an architecture towards accelerating compute element operations on a fully arbitrated silicon photonic (SiP) system. An 8×8 SiP network is controlled in a distributed fashion, with connectivity consisting of two 10Gbps wavelength division multiplexed data links that are arbitrated out-of-band.

We investigate the scalability of all-to-all crossbar switch with microring resonators. State-of-the-art −18.1 dB crosstalk in resonators cannot support a 4×4 switch fabric while below −40 dB crosstalk is necessary for 32 × 32 switch fabrics.

We review several techniques for expanding the carrying capacity of multimode fiber (MMF) data links using short wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) and selective modal launch. Our approach utilizing four SWDM vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and novel diffractive optical components enables 100 GbE transmission in a single 300 m OM3 MMF lane.

We demonstrate 56 Gb/s direct modulation of a high bandwidth heterogeneously integrated InP/Si DFB laser, and transmission over 2 km of non-zero dispersion shifted single mode fiber. The high bandwidth of the laser is achieved by exploiting the photon-photon resonance effect.

A ring-based switch architecture that combines the Clos network with populated switch-and-select stages is proposed, achieving significantly reduced crosstalk compared to other non-blocking architectures. Detailed physical-layer simulation results show a 128×128 switch exhibits a power penalty of 18dB, improving >10dB compared to the Benes switch.

A machine learning method of effective nonlinear decision frame for PAM-N system based on support vector machine (SVM) using complete binary tree (CBT) structure is demonstrated in this work. The simulations results indicate improved performance by the proposed classifier which enhances the power sensitivity by 2-dB and 6-dB at the receiver side in 100-Gbps PAM-4 and PAM-8 systems respectively.

We demonstrate comb generation on 220-nm silicon-on-insulator, enabled by a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator, by which 7 comb lines with 7dB flatness and 5 lines with 3dB flatness have been achieved. This provides a promising solution for flexible multicarrier transmitters on silicon.

We demonstrate single-wavelength, serial and real-time 100 Gb/s NRZ-OOK transmission over 500 m SSMF with a GeSi EAM implemented on a silicon photonics platform.

We present our experimental results of ultra efficient (up to 2.16 nm/mW) thermally tunable modulators with n-type heaters and the Si substrate removed. To our knowledge, this is the most efficient thermally tunable modulator demonstrated at 1550nm to date. We include results of externally heated modulators with commensurate performance enhancements through substrate removal.
