Abstract: Examples herein relate to optical systems. In particular, implementations herein relate to an optical system including an optical transmitter configured to transmit optical signals. The optical transmitter includes a first optical source and a second optical source coupled to the first optical source and injection seeded by the first optical source. The optical transmitter further includes an output coupler, the second optical source coupled to the optical coupler via an output waveguide and configured to emit light having multiple different wavelengths through the output waveguide. In some implementations, the second optical source is self-injection seeded.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an optical coupler. The optical coupler may include a first optical waveguide base layer, a second optical waveguide base layer, an insulating layer disposed over at least a portion of both the first optical waveguide base layer and the second optical waveguide base layer, and a semiconductor material layer disposed over the insulating layer. Overlapping portions of the first optical waveguide base layer, the insulating layer, and the semiconductor material layer form a first optical waveguide, and overlapping portions of the second optical waveguide base layer, the insulating layer, and the semiconductor material layer form a second optical waveguide. Moreover, the optical coupler may include a plurality of metal contacts to receive one or more first biasing voltages to operate one of the first optical waveguide base layer and the second optical waveguide base layer in an accumulation mode.

Abstract: Examples herein relate to optical systems. In particular, implementations herein relate to an optical system including an optical transmitter configured to transmit optical signals. The optical transmitter includes a first optical source coupled to an input waveguide and configured to emit light having different wavelengths through the input waveguide. The optical transmitter includes a Mach-Zehnder interferometer that includes a first arm and a second arm. The MZI further includes a first optical coupler configured to couple the emitted light from the input waveguide to the first and second arms and an array of two or more second optical sources coupled to the first arm. Each of the two or more second optical sources are configured to be injection locked to a different respective wavelength of the emitted light transmitted from the first optical source. The MZI further includes a second optical coupler configured to combine the emitted light from the first and second arms after propagating therethrough.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an optical device with an integrated light-emitting structure to generate light and a waveguide integrated capacitor to monitor light. The light-emitting structure may emit light upon the application of electricity to the optical device. The waveguide integrated capacitor may be formed under the light-emitting structure to monitor the light emitted by the light-emitting structure. The waveguide integrated capacitor includes a waveguide region carrying at least a portion of the light. The waveguide region includes one or more photon absorption sites causing the generation of free charge carriers relative to an intensity of the light confined in the waveguide region resulting in a change in the conductance of the waveguide region.
