Abstract
New high-speed photonic technologies and co-integration with electronics are required to keep up with the demand of future optical communication systems. In this paper, plasmonics is presented as one of the most promising next-generation photonic technologies that already fulfils these requirements in proof-of-concept demonstrations. Plasmonics features not only modulators and detectors of highest speed, but also compactness, cost- and energy-efficiency, and compatibility with CMOS electronics. Recently, co-integration with electronics was demonstrated with record performances of 222 GBd in a hybrid InP electronic-plasmonic transmitter assembly and of 120 GBd with a monolithic BiCMOS electronic-plasmonic transmitter.
