Abstract
We present a C-band pre-amplified receiver on an advanced silicon photonics platform, consisting of an indium phosphide semiconductor optical amplifier (InP SOA) integrated via micro-transfer printing (mu TP), connected to a ring filter and a 50 GHz germanium photodiode (Ge PD). The InP SOA provides 8.1 dB small-signal gain at 1550.3 nm for an injection current of 95 mA. The ring filter has a 25 dB extinction ratio and a 3 dB bandwidth of 1.45 nm to suppress the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise from the SOA. In the 30 Gbps non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal transmission experiment, the device exhibits a sensitivity of -18 dBm at a bit-error rate (BER) of 10(-6) for an SOA injection current of 95 mA, showing a 7 dB improvement compared to the reference Ge PD.
