'Beyond Moore's Law' Photonic Integrated Circuits for RF Photonics and Sensing Systems
Abstract
We describe silicon photonic PICs that are needed for RF photonics and sensing systems and are enabled by heterogeneous integration. This beyond Moore's law technology includes III-V semiconductors for high-performance lasers, modulators, photodetectors; silicon nitride for filters, time-delay; Ce:YIG for isolators; PZT for ultra-low power tuning. These advanced PICs enable high SFDR analog links, simultaneous RF beamforming, plus sensing and timing applications.
