Title:Monolithic Integrated InP Coherent Receiver
 
Speaker:Dr. Liming Zhang(Bell Lab,USA)
 
Abstract: Monolithic multichannel coherent receivers in InP were proposed and realized. A 4x43-Gbps reception was demonstrated. It uses a novel AWG design that accurately performs all the main functions of a multiwavelength coherent receiver. It has no waveguide crossings and exhibits a large polarization splitting extinction ratio and accurate hybrid phase without the need for critical processing or post-fabrication adjustment.

Biography: Liming Zhang received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University
of Strathclyde, Strathclyde, U.K., in 1990. From 1990 to 1993, he was a Research Associate with Cambridge University, Cambridge, U.K., where he was engaged on theoretical study of long-wavelength
distributed feedback lasers. He joined Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, NJ,
as a Member of Technical Staff in 1993, where he has designed high-linearity
analog lasers for CATV application and electro-absorptive modulator lasers for
optical transmission systems. In 2001, he moved to Bell Laboratories, Crawford
Hill Laboratory, Holmdel, NJ. His current research interests include MOCVD
growth of III-V compound semiconductor materials, quantum dots emission at
1.55-um, nonlinear application of semiconductor optical amplifiers, high-speed
InP-based transceiver, and large-scale photonic integration. Dr. Zhang has served as a member of technical committee for many conferences. He is currently serving as an associate editor for IEEE PHOTONICS
TECHNOLOGY LETTERS.
