Electro-optical co-simulation for integrated CMOS photonic circuits with VerilogA.
We present a Cadence toolkit library written in VerilogA for simulation of electro-optical systems. We have identified and described a set of fundamental photonic components at the physical level such that characteristics of composite devices (e.g. ring modulators) are created organically - by simple instantiation of fundamental primitives. Both the amplitude and phase of optical signals as wel...
متن کاملOptical Isolators for Photonic Integrated Circuits
With the advance of mature fabrication technologies, photonic integrated circuits (PICs) reach ever-higher levels of complexity. Integration of thousands of components has been shown [1], with each main technology showing an exponential growth in complexity [2]. This increase in complexity requires a convergence in technologies, and the roadmaps are currently being pushed by silicon nitride, (h...
متن کاملPhotonic Integrated Circuits for Optical Logic Applications
The optical logic unit cell is the photonic analog to transistor-transistor logic in electronic devices. Active devices such as InP-based semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) emitting at 1550 nm are vertically integrated with passive waveguides using the asymmetric twin waveguide technique and the SOAs are placed in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration. By sending in high-intensi...
متن کاملDemonstration of reconfigurable electro-optical logic with silicon photonic integrated circuits.
We demonstrate a scalable and reconfigurable optical directed-logic architecture consisting of a regular array of integrated optical switches based on microring resonators. The switches are controlled by electrical input logic signals through embedded p-i-n junctions. The circuit can be reconfigured to perform any combinational logic operation by thermally tuning the operation modes of the swit...
متن کاملSimulator Coupling for Electro-Thermal Simulation of Integrated Circuits
The paper presents a methodology for simulating the static and dynamic performance of integrated circuits in the presence of electro-thermal interactions on the integrated circuit die. The technique is based on the coupling of a FEM program with a circuit simulator. In difference to other known simulator couplings the time step algorithm is used. Its implementation into simulation tools is desc...
