Abstract :
Regrowth-free monolithic transmitter PIC in InP, which comprises a distributed feedback laser, a laser monitor, a 1 × 4 beam splitter, four 25 Gb/s electro-absorption modulators and four spot-size converters, is reported. With 1 mm × 4.4 mm footprint, it is among the most compact and power efficient transmitter optics solutions to 100 Gb/s interconnects.
