A compact demodulator for wavelength division multiplexed (WDM)-differential phase shift keying signals monolithically integrated in an InP platform with a semiconductor optical pre-amplifier is reported. The photonic integrated circuit, made by an semiconductor optical amplifier and an ad hoc arrayed waveguide grating (AWG), is designed for the simultaneous demodulation of a WDM comb in a single circuit thanks to narrow filtering. The demodulation of 56-Gb/s channels on the eight, 100-GHz-spaced, AWG outputs is experimentally demonstrated.

Abstract

The photonic integrated circuit, made by an semiconductor optical amplifier and an ad hoc arrayed waveguide grating (AWG), is designed for the simultaneous demodulation of a WDM comb in a single circuit thanks to narrow filtering. The demodulation of 56-Gb/s channels on the eight, 100-GHz-spaced, AWG outputs is experimentally demonstrated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
