Abstract

Achieving the highest transmission speeds requires both a well designed device and a strategy on how to exploit the device in the system. Modern communications relies on ever more complex control and signal processing tools that can help us meet the potential of silicon photonics devices. We will provide two examples of the design strategies to expand the bandwidth of silicon modulators (traveling wave and microring). Our systems strategies have allowed us to set records for transmission rates and for shoreline density. Our examples come from coherent detection. Our use of low cost silicon photonics solutions will help push adoption of coherent detection to metro and short reach links, including data centers.
