    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to system. The system includes a polarization diversified wavelength demultiplexer (WDM). The polarization diversified wavelength demultiplexer includes a polarization beam splitter configured to output a first polarized signal and a second polarized signal based on an input signal; and a wavelength demultiplexer (WDM) having two inputs that are connected to the two outputs of the polarization beam splitter, and configured to output signals with a single set of outputs that carry signals of both polarizations, based on the first polarized signal from the first input and the second polarized signal from the second input.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) having a resistivity-engineered substrate to suppress radio-frequency (RF) common-mode signals. In some embodiments, a semiconductor substrate is provided that comprises two portions having different levels of resistivity to provide both suppression of common mode signals, and reduction of RF absorption loss for non-common mode RF signals. In such embodiments, a bottom portion of the semiconductor substrate has a low resistivity to suppress common mode via RF absorption, while a top portion of the semiconductor substrate that is adjacent to conductors in the IC has a high resistivity to reduce RF loss.

    Abstract: Optical transceivers comprising optical loopback circuits are described. The optical transceiver may comprise a housing, which may host a transmitter, a receiver and the optical loopback circuit. The optical loopback circuit may be configured to route at least a portion of a modulated optical signal from the transmitter to the receiver. The optical loopback circuit may comprise tap couplers and/or optical switches. The optical transceiver may be switched between a normal mode and a calibration mode. The optical transceiver may maintain the same fiber connections even when the optical transceiver is switched from one mode to another. The transmitter, the receiver and the optical loopback circuit may be disposed on a common substrate, or on separate substrates.

    Abstract: Cantilevered waveguides suspended above an air cavity in an underlying substrate are described. The waveguide is formed by patterning a waveguide layer in some embodiments, and the air cavity is formed by etching the substrate beneath the waveguide. The topside of the air cavity may be sealed by filling the openings used to etch the cavity with a sealant, such as optical epoxy. In some embodiments, the waveguide is a facet coupler, positioned at a chip facet.
