Abstract

In this paper, we report the fabrication of an optical tranceiver engine that is based on a 12 µm silicon on insulator (SOI) waveguide platform and directly modulated vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). The main motivation for using 12 µm thick SOI waveguides is low-loss coupling to standard SM fibers with relaxed alignment tolerances. We demonstrate 25.7Gb/s operation of the complete optical interconnect link channel.
