Metamaterial devices (metadevices) have been developed in progress aiming to generate
extraordinary performance over traditional devices in the (sub-) terahertz (THz) domain, and …

As datacenters continue to scale in size, energy efficiency for short reach (<; 2 km) links is a
major factor for networks that may connect hundreds of thousands of servers. We …

The big data era has witnessed expansion of information traffic at a 26% compound annual
growth rate (CAGR) during one decade, as shown in Figure 1 (a)[1],[2]. Rising data rates …

This article presents a 100-Gb/s four-level pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM4) optical
transmitter system implemented in a 3-D-integrated silicon photonics-CMOS platform. The …

Massive-MIMO systems can achieve high capacities and data rates by increasing the
number of operational antennas in the base station. As more antenna elements are …

The INTREPID program is developing power-efficient coherent optics for package-level
integration with future switch integrated circuits as a path to realizing higher-radix switches …

This article presents two wideband distributed amplifiers (DAs) to support high data rate
communication. The two DAs, respectively, utilize NMOS-only and PMOS/NMOS hybrid gain …

A monolithically integrated electronic-photonic Mach-Zehnder modulator is presented,
incorporating electronic linear drivers along with photonic components. Electro-optical 3 dB …

A hybrid approach incorporates traveling-wave amplifier stages into the Mach-Zehnder
modulator (MZM) to reduce the area and power and improve bandwidth in a 90-nm silicon …

This paper presents an integrated differential, distributed Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM)
driver with two-tap feedforward equalization (FFE). The driver consists of two-stack, pseudo …
