德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 beyond-100Gbps optical digital coherent transmission

March 16, 2017

德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 Co., Ltd. has developed a new wavelength-tunable laser chip that enables narrow linewidth and high output power from a micro ITLA(note 1)Sampling of the Narrow Linewidth/High Output 德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 is imminent, and mass production will be announced shortly thereafter.

Background

The continuing growth in popularity of smartphones, cloud computing, video distribution, and social networking has increased traffic through core communication network德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 data centers all over the world. 100 and 200 Gb/s high capacity transmission systems that use optical digital coherent(note 2)transmission continue to be installed to support this increase in traffic.
德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 has already commercialized its micro ITLA product, exhibiting excellent characteristics as a signal laser and local oscillator(note 3)in optical digital coherent systems. However, due to exponential traffic growth, the market demanded 德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴s with narrower linewidth and higher optical output power, in order to support higher modulation formats and smaller form factors for 400 Gb/s and even 1 Tb/s.

(note 1)德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴:
an Integrated Tunable Laser Assembly with reduced footprint; a key part of ultrafast optical digital coherent transmission devices capable of speeds exceeding 100 Gb/s. 德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴s are being implemented for high-speed applications all over the world.

(note 2)德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴:
A transmission method that uses optical phase as well as amplitude to increase spectral efficiency and is robust against signal degradation and noise. By using digital signal processing to recover the carrier frequency and phase from transmitted data, the system is capable of transmitting a large volume of information within a narrow bandwidth.

(note 3)Local oscillator:
Light source used locally to interfere with the signal light, in order to extract phase information from transmitted data. This requires 德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴width properties.

Content

德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 has utilized its mature, proven in-house InP (Indium Phosphide) semiconductor chip technology to create a next-generation, wavelength-tunable laser chip on which laser arrays with unique diffraction grating structures and low-loss optical couplers are monolithically integrated. The new laser chip has successfully enabled a "narrow linewidth & high output power micro ITLA" that offers among the highest optical output powers and narrowest linewidths in the world.

德赢AC米兰官方合作伙伴 was able to use its high precision packaging technology to increase output power, reduce linewidth, and shrink packaging to a size even smaller than traditional products — without causing power consumption or other characteristics to suffer. The new product's command interface is compatible with OIF(note 4)
standards, making it easy to implement with optical communication devices.
