We report ultra-low-power (690fJ/bit) operation of an optical receiver consisting of a germanium-silicon waveguide detector intimately integrated with a receiver circuit and embedded in a clocked… (More)

Multipole-cancellation mechanism for high-Q cavities in the absence of a complete photonic band gap

Steven G. Johnson, Shanhui Fan, Attila Mekis, John. D. Joannopoulos
2001

We describe and demonstrate a new mechanism for low radiation losses in structures lacking a complete band gap, and show how resonant cavities with Q.10 can be achieved without sacrificing strong… (More)

A Fully Integrated 4 $\times$ 10-Gb/s DWDM Optoelectronic Transceiver Implemented in a Standard 0.13 $\mu{\hbox {m}}$ CMOS SOI Technology
