Monolithically integrated L-band PICs and transceiver modules with 6λ x 200 Gbps (1.2 Tbps) for C + L band
Abstract:
We present monolithically integrated multi-channel coherent L-band transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) photonic integrated circuits (PICs) on InP substrates. The L-band PICs are able to provide post-forward error correction (FEC), error-free operation for dual-polarization (DP) 16-QAM coherent transmission at 33 Gbaud. These transceivers operate at 200 Gbps per channel and support 1.2 Tbps aggregate capacity per 6 channel PIC. We also demonstrate in this work a C + L band communication system with two C-band superchannels (2 x 6λ) and three L-band superchannels (3 x 6λ) over a 600 km link. The received signals all have Q > 7.7 dB, which is well above the error-free threshold of the FEC used in this work.

Band Formation:
When atoms are brought close together, as in a solid, these discrete energy levels begin to split due to the overlap of electron orbitals from adjacent atoms. This split occurs because of the Pauli exclusion principle, which states...
