A 107-Gbit/s optoelectronic receiver utilizing hybrid integration of a photodetector and electronic demultiplexer
01 January 2008
A novel 107-Gbit/s optoelectronic receiver has been designed using hybrid integration of a photodiode and electronic demultiplexer. Using an ETDM transmitter, we achieve the lowest reported required OSNR for 107-Gbit/s CSRZ-OOK, 21 dB for a 10(-3) BER and a 2(31)-1 pattern length. Design methodology and performance data are presented.
