World's first 40 to 60 Gbps silicon photonics modulator using advanced modulation formats

Wednesday, March 27, 2013 - 07:00 in Physics & Chemistry

In collaboration with Fujikura Ltd., researchers from Singapore's A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics (IME) have pioneered the world's first 40 to 60 Gbps silicon-based optical modulators with advanced multilevel modulation formats for high speed long-haul data transmission. This represents a major advance towards low cost, ultra-high bandwidth and small footprint optical communications on silicon platform.
