研究目的
To present a four channel optical passive wavelength-striped mapping (PWSM) device for energy-efficient optical interconnects, which passively time compresses/expands serial packets through optical wavelength multiplexing/demultiplexing.
研究成果
The PWSM device demonstrates the feasibility of passively time compressing/expanding serial packets through optical wavelength multiplexing/demultiplexing, offering a scalable and energy-efficient solution for optical interconnects in data centers.
研究不足
The incremental optical insertion loss between adjacent channels is ~9.7 dB due to the integrated passive optical delay waveguides. The device's scalability is limited by the loss difference between adjacent channels.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The PWSM device is designed with a 1 × 4 channel optical wavelength demultiplexer with integrated optical delay lines in a low-loss Si3N4 waveguide platform. The device multiplexes/demultiplexes four WDM channels and offsets in time the adjacent channels to optically serialize/de-serialize data packets.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The experiment uses a 64 ns long data packet formed by combining four 16 ns data segments of the packet in the time domain.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The PWSM device is fabricated on a Si3N4 waveguide platform. The experimental setup includes a continuous wave (CW) laser source, polarization controller, EDFA, photodetector, and digital communication analyzer.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The optical output signals from each of the four optical output ports of the PWSM circuit are coupled to a single mode fiber one at a time. A second EDFA is used before the photodetector to compensate for the insertion loss of the PWSM circuit.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The bit error rate (BER) performance of the aggregated 64 ns packet is measured below 1 ×10?9 for a received optical power of –6.7 dBm.
