High-Density Integrated Optics

چکیده
This paper presents two-dimensional (2-D) finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations of low-loss rightangle waveguide bends, T-junctions and crossings, based on high index-contrast waveguides. Such structures are essential for the dense integration of optical components. Excellent performance characteristics are obtained by designing the waveguide intersection regions as low-Q resonant cavities with certain symmetries and small radiation loss. A simple analysis, based on coupled mode theory in time, is used to explain the operation principles and agrees qualitatively with the numerical results.

متن کاملImpact of pulse dynamics on timing jitter in mode-locked fiber lasers.
We investigate the high-frequency timing jitter spectral density of mode-locked fiber lasers in different mode-locked regimes. Quantum-noise-limited timing jitter spectra of mode-locked-regime-switchable Yb fiber lasers are measured up to the Nyquist frequency with sub-100-as resolution. The integrated rms timing jitter of soliton, stretched-pulse, and self-similar Yb fiber lasers is measured t...
متن کاملPlasmonic interconnects versus conventional interconnects: a comparison of latency, crosstalk and energy costs.
The continued scaling of integrated circuits will require advances in intra-chip interconnect technology to minimize delay, density of energy dissipation and cross-talk. We present the first quantitative comparison between the performance of metal wire interconnects, operated in the traditional manner by electric charge and discharge, versus the performance of metal wires operated as surface pl...
متن کاملTrade-offs between lens complexity and real estate utilization in a free-space multichip global interconnection module.
The FAST-Net (Free-space Accelerator for Switching Terabit Networks) concept uses an array of wide-field-of-view imaging lenses to realize a high-density shuffle interconnect pattern across an array of smart-pixel integrated circuits. To simplify the optics we evaluated the efficiency gained in replacing spherical surfaces with aspherical surfaces by exploiting the large disparity between narro...
متن کاملDESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF A HYBRID FEED ANTENNA FOR A FLUX-FLOW OSCILLATOR INTEGRATED 460 GHz SIS RECEIVER
We have designed a 460 GHz FFO-driven integrated SIS receiver in which the signal is fed via a quasi-optical hybrid antenna feeding system. Since in such quasi-optical SIS receivers the contribution of the quasi-optics to the overall receiver noise is considerable, it is important to be able to analyze the antenna efficiency in order to optimize its coupling and improve the noise temperature of...

A compact pin Ge photodetector is integrated in submicron SOI rib waveguide. The detector length is reduced down to 15 microm using butt coupling configuration which is sufficient to totally absorb light at the wavelength of 1.55 microm. A -3 dB bandwidth of 42 GHz has been measured at a 4V reverse bias with a responsivity as high as 1 A/W at the wavelength of 1.55 microm and a low dark current...
