Impact of semiconductor optical amplifiers in coherent down-conversion microwave photonic links
June 6, 2012
Conference Paper
Published in:
CLEO: Conf. on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 6-11 June 2012.
Summary
We compare the impact of conventional semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and high linearity slab-coupled optical waveguide amplifiers (SCOWAs) on the SFDR of carrier-suppressed coherent down-conversion microwave photonic links.

Waveguide engineering for hybrid Si/III-V lasers and amplifiers
June 6, 2012
Conference Paper
Published in:
CLEO: Conf. on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 6-11 June 2012.
Summary
Using adiabatic tapers, hybrid silicon / III-V lasers and amplifiers are integrated with conventional thin (t = 0.25 um) silicon waveguides. Amplifiers have ~12 dB intrachip gain, and similar lasers have thresholds of 35 mA.
