Data Transmission at $1.3\ \mu\text{m}$ Using Hybrid Integrated Silicon Interposer and GalnNAs/GaAs Electroabsorption Modulator

Transmission of NRZ data at 12.5 Gbit/s is demonstrated using a hybrid integrated silicon photonics optical interconnect. The interconnect comprises a dilute nitride quantum well electroabsorption modulator on GaAs substrate, which is optically coupled to large core Si waveguide.
