Abstract :
We demonstrate an OSNR meter co-integrated with a photonic integrated switch for on-chip measurement. A scheme for on-chip electronic calibration is proposed using switch gates as detectors. Integrated photocurrent measurements are performed for noise and signal using an on-chip cyclic router and gates in combination with multi-channel electronic integrators to demonstrate an OSNR dynamic range extending from 6 to 40 dB/0.1nm.
