abstract = {A concept and design of a 50-Gbps 4-channel dense
wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) optical transceiver
is being developed. It is designed in a 45-nm monolithic
silicon-photonics CMOS technology. The design targets to
meet the rising data throughput requirements of
high-resolution detectors in high-energy physics and photon
science. We discuss the key components of the transceiver,
emphasizing high-speed ring modulators, ring resonators and
their electronic circuitries, highlighting the advantage of
the monolithic integration. The transmitter concept is based
on multi-wavelength light coupled into a single waveguide to
be modulated by cascaded ring modulators at their resonant
wavelengths within free spectral range of 9.3 nm. The
dedicated electronic circuitry to modulate ring modulators
contains custom-designed 10-to-1 multiplexer followed by a
dedicated driver with asymmetrical differential voltage of
1.5 V. The multiplexer and driver consume only 0.7 pJ/b at
12.5 Gbps. An array of four 2nd order ring resonators are
cascaded to demultiplex the transmitted spectrum at the
receiver side. The spacing between the channels is designed
to be 400 GHz (2.1 nm) to ensure the device peformance. We
examine the temperature dependencies of ring modulators and
resonators to determine the tuning range available by
biasing the heating element. Furthermore, the correlation
between crosstalk among the channels and channel spacing is
addressed. Through comprehensive electrical-optical
co-design simulations, we present the feasibility and
performance potential of our proposed optical transceiver
paving the way to realize efficient and compact detector
systems.},
