摘要：

An energy/area-efficient low-cost broadband linearity enhancement technique using the hybrid of notch-filter and bandpass-filter micro-ring modulators (Hybrid-MRMs) is proposed to achieve higher than 3.01-dB improvement in spurious-free-dynamic-ranges with intermodulation distortions (Delta SFDRIMD) and 17.9-dB improvement in integral nonlinearity (Delta INLPP) over a conventional notch-filter MRM (NF-MRM) across a 4.8-dB extinction-ratio full-scale range based on rapid silicon-photonics fabrication results for the emerging applications of various analog and digital optical communication systems.
