Fully Monolithic Integrated Silicon Photonics Slave Transceiver for Short-Reach Network

We demonstrate an integrated silicon-based slave transceiver integrating a DPSK receiver and a polarization diversity reflective modulator. We successfully achieved up to 40 Gbit/s OOK-NRZ modulation and 25 Gbit/s DPSK detection over more than 20 nm and 10 km.
