Abstract

We present an ultra-compact and low-power silicon coherent receiver operating at 40 GBaud QPSK (80 Gb/s) and 16-QAM (160 Gb/s). The receiver consumes only 310 mW of power and realizes a factor 4 size reduction of the photonic integrated circuit compared to previously reported single-polarization silicon coherent receivers. This is the highest reported symbol rate for a silicon coherent receiver.
