Abstract

Summary from only given. We have demonstrated operation of a wavelength-division multiplexed optical interconnect using a broadband source. The system data rate of 80 Mb/s is limited by the repetition rate of the laser, but the individual circuits and optoelectronic devices have been shown to work at data rates approaching 1 Gb/s. Such a system has many potential advantages for future short-distance optical interconnects.
