Temperature Tolerant On-Chip WDM Silicon Photonic Transmitter and AWGR-based Routing Interconnects

We demonstrate automated thermal drift compensation in a two-socket AWGR interconnect, incorporating a ring-modulator transmitter. Stable operation with an average
$\mathrm{Q}=5.8$
over a range of 9°C is achieved for 25 Gb/s on-chip modulated data.
