Ultra-Compact Silicon Photonic 512 × 512 25 GHz Arrayed Waveguide Grating Router

Abstract: This paper discusses design, fabrication, and characterization of a 512 × 512 arrayed waveguide grating router (AWGR) with a channel spacing of 25 GHz. The dimensions of the AWGR is 16 mm × 11 mm and is fabricated on a 250 nm silicon-on-insulator platform. The measured channel crosstalk is approximately −4 dB without any compensation for the phase errors in the arrayed waveguides. The AWGR spectrum in the arrayed waveguide grating arms were characterized by using an optical vector network analyzer. Fabrication… Show more

“…[26]. Next, a 512×512 AWG router with 25 GHz channel spacing was recently reported [27]. O/E and E/O conversion with SiP technologies can be readily achieved: a number of high-performance SiP modulators exist [28], including those capable of advanced modulation formats [29], as well as PDs and BPDs [30], [31].…”

“…In particular, high performance AWGs in SiP [36] have been realized and BGs are now routinely produced [37,38]. By introducing a pn junction to the silicon waveguide and applying a bias voltage, reconfiguration can be enabled through the plasma dispersion effect.…”

“…Error free and successful switching and interconnection have been achieved. AWGRs can scale to 2010 ports [31] and have been demonstrated on a silicon photonic chip for 512 × 512 [32]. LIONS expect achieve orders of magnitude increases in switching capacity, connectivity, throughput, and latency compared to electronic counterparts while providing all-to- all connectivity without contention.…”
