Abstract :
This paper presents the experimental demonstrations of using a pure nanoengineered silicon waveguide for 1.28 Tb/s serial data optical waveform sampling and 1.28 Tb/s-10 Gb/s error-free demultiplexing. The 330-fs pulses are resolved in each 780-fs time slot in waveform sampling. Error-free operation is achieved in the 1.28 Tb/s-10 Gb/s demultiplexing.
