研究目的
To develop a compact silicon-photonic receiver integrated with a 28-nm CMOS transimpedance-amplifier (TIA) chip for high-speed and high-efficiency operation, suitable for practical use at high temperatures.
研究成果
The developed silicon-photonic receiver demonstrates error-free operation at 25 Gb/s across a range of temperatures, with competitive sensitivity and power consumption metrics. The photonics—electronics convergence design technique proves effective for practical applications, including high-temperature environments.
研究不足
The study acknowledges the influence of the low-resistivity SOI wafer on CPW performance and the need for further optimization to reduce deterministic jitters caused by LC resonance in power lines.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The receiver was designed using a photonics—electronics convergence design technique, focusing on the interfaces between optical and electrical components. Optical pins were used for alignment, and an aluminum stripline was employed to enhance bandwidth.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study utilized a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer with integrated germanium photodetectors (Ge-PDs) and a CMOS-TIA chip.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a LiNbO3 Mach–Zehnder modulator, tunable laser source, and sampling oscilloscope. Materials included UV-curable resin for optical pins and aluminum for striplines.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Optical signals were generated and input into the receiver, with performance evaluated through eye-diagram measurements and bit error rate (BER) tests at varying temperatures.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data was analyzed for transimpedance gain, bandwidth, and power consumption, with performance metrics compared at 25 and 85 °C.
