Abstract
Mode division multiplexing (MDM) has garnered significant attention for its potential to enhance communication capacity. In this paper, we present for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, a 3D-integrated parallel multimode transmitter, featuring two multimode fibers, with both TE0 and TE1 modes transmitted for data multiplexing. Each channel exhibits an electro-optic (EO) bandwidth of ∼45 GHz, enabling a total transmission of 2 × 2 × 106.25 Gbps upon four-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4).
期刊介绍:
The Optical Society (OSA) publishes high-quality, peer-reviewed articles in its portfolio of journals, which serve the full breadth of the optics and photonics community.
Optics Letters offers rapid dissemination of new results in all areas of optics with short, original, peer-reviewed communications. Optics Letters covers the latest research in optical science, including optical measurements, optical components and devices, atmospheric optics, biomedical optics, Fourier optics, integrated optics, optical processing, optoelectronics, lasers, nonlinear optics, optical storage and holography, optical coherence, polarization, quantum electronics, ultrafast optical phenomena, photonic crystals, and fiber optics. Criteria used in determining acceptability of contributions include newsworthiness to a substantial part of the optics community and the effect of rapid publication on the research of others. This journal, published twice each month, is where readers look for the latest discoveries in optics.
