System validation of polymer-based transmitter optical sub-assembly for 100G/200G modules

This paper experimentally demonstrates Polymer-based transmitter optical sub-assembly (TOSA) for CFP2-ACO modules running at 100G/200G Flexigrid WDM (37.5 GHz). Compared to LiNbO
₃
, the ultra-compact TOSA provides excellent performance both in back-to-back and over long-haul distances.
