An Ultra Low Power CMOS Photonics Technology Platform for H/S Optoelectronic Transceivers at less than $1 per Gbps

Abstract

We have demonstrated a CMOS Optoelectronic technology platform, using a 650mW 4×10-Gb/s 0.13 µm silicon-on-insulator integrated transceiver chip, co-packaged with an externally modulated laser, to enable high density data interconnects at <$1 per Gbps.
