Abstract
A hybrid MQW-device-based chip-scale optical interconnect is demonstrated. Novel small-footprint couplers are fabricated with gray-scale lithography to enable high-density fabrics and low-capacitance devices, with sub-pJ/b link performance. Contrast ratio and refined coupler results are presented.
