    摘要: An optical integrated circuit comprises a semiconductor body, a semiconductor optical waveguide located on the body, and a bipolar phototransistor located on and optically coupled to the waveguide. In a preferred embodiment, the base region of the transistor is configured to absorb radiation propagating in the waveguide, but the emitter and collector regions are both configured not to absorb the propagating radiation. In a further preferred embodiment, the waveguide is configured to guide the radiation along a propagation axis therein, and the transistor makes an elongated footprint along the waveguide, the footprint being elongated along the direction of the propagation axis. In another preferred embodiment, the footprint is at least three times longer along the propagation axis than along a direction perpendicular thereto.

    摘要: A method for determining symbols PSK modulated on an optical carrier includes interfering a first polarization component of the modulated optical carrier and a reference optical carrier in a first optical mixer and interfering the first polarization component of the modulated optical carrier and the reference with a different relative phase in a second optical mixer. The method also includes sampling the interfered carriers from the first optical mixer to produce first digital sampled values and sampling the interfered carriers from the second optical mixer to produce second digital sampled values. The first and second digital sampled values of a sampling period form a first complex sampling value thereof. The method also includes offsetting a phase of a complex signal value corresponding to each first complex sampling value to correct for a phase error caused by a frequency offset between the modulated and reference optical carriers.

    摘要: A receiver for coherent detection of a PSK modulated optical carrier includes an optical detector, digital-to-analog converters, and a digital module. The optical detector is configured to mix the modulated optical carrier with two phase components of a reference optical carrier and to produce analog output signals representative of optical signals produced by said mixing. The digital-to-analog converters are connected to receive the analog output signals and to produce digital signals from the received analog output signals. The digital module is connected to receive the digital signals and to perform one of compensating the received digital signals for a conjugate phase misalignment between the mixed components, extracting phase of the received digital signals, and estimating a frequency offset between the two carriers from the received digital signals.
