In this paper, we present a brief history of silicon photonics from the early research papers in
the late 1980s and early 1990s, to the potentially revolutionary technology that exists today …

High-speed optical interconnects are crucial for both data centers and high performance
computing systems. High power consumption and limited device bandwidth have hindered …

In this paper, a substrate removing technique in a silicon Mach–Zehnder modulator (MZM) is
proposed and demonstrated to improve modulation bandwidth. Based on the novel and …

Lasers and light emitters do not typically radiate fields with orbital angular momentum
(OAM). Here we show that a suitable scheme of spatiotemporal modulation of a microring …

CMOS-compatible III-V lasers integrated on silicon are a crucial step to reduce power
consumption and cost for next-generation optical transceivers. Here, we demonstrate a …

In this letter, we present a silicon photonics radioover-fiber transmitter with a microwave
photonic up-conversion capability. The circuit consists of a pair of parallel GeSi intensity …

We demonstrate the first simplified coherent receiver using a 120° hybrid on silicon-on-
insulator (SOI) for high speed PON applications. This coherent receiver integrates an …

We demonstrate a Si photonic crystal waveguide Mach–Zehnder modulator that
incorporates meander-line electrodes to compensate for the phase mismatch between slow …

Silicon photonic (SiP) electro-optic modulators are a key component in cost-efficient and
integrated optical transmitters. Modulator design traditionally uses figure of merits (FOMs) …

For the first time, an integrated electro-optical RF modulator based on the quadratic electro-
optical effect with CMOS compatible sub-volt driver voltages is presented. As unique feature …
