An all-silicon coherent optical receiver beyond 100 GBd using a traveling-wave SiGe BiCMOS TIA
Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: We demonstrate a coherent optical receiver integrating a silicon-photonic front-end with a 55-nm SiGe BiCMOS traveling-wave TIA. The receiver achieves 44-GHz bandwidth and supports single-polarization QPSK up to 140GBd and 16-QAM up to 112GBd
