Tb/s switching fabrics for optical interconnects using heterointegration of plasmonics and silicon photonics: The FP7 PLATON approach
2010
We present recent work that is carried out within the FP7 project PLATON on novel Tb/s switch fabric architectures and technologies for optical interconnect applications, employing heterointegration of plasmonics, silicon photonics and electronics.
Silicon-based light-emitting devices: Properties and applications of crystalline, amorphous and er-doped nanoclusters
2006
In this paper, we summarize the results of an extensive investigation on the properties of MOS-type light-emitting devices based on silicon nanostructures. The performances of crystalline, amorphous, and Er-doped Si nanostructures are presented and compared. We show that all devices are extremely stable and robust, resulting in an intense room temperature electroluminescence (EL) at around 900 nm or at 1.54 μm. Amorphous nanoclusters are more conductive than the crystalline counterpart. In contrast, nonradiative processes seem to be more efficient for amorphous clusters resulting in a lower quantum efficiency. Erbium doping results in the presence of an intense EL at 1.54 μm with a concomit…
Optoelectronic Module with Integrated Transceiver and Mux-Demux for Optical Interconnect Applications
2019
The design, development and improvtableement in electronic devices and components have led to the further miniaturization of the system devices and their interconnecting interfaces. Hence, reducing the size of the transmitter (Tx) chips, receiver (Rx) chips and associated components play an important role in designing a reduced/small sized optoelectronic modules for optical interconnect applications. Some of the associated components include multiplexer, demultiplexer, clock and data recovery circuits (CDR), etc. Therefore, in this paper we present an optoelectronic module with integrated transceiver (Tx-Rx) and multiplexer-demultiplexer (mux-demux) with the aim of reducing the total area o…
