Abstract: A wideband electro-absorption modulating (EAM) device is configured to include a ground shield that functions to minimize the spread of an applied AC voltage beyond the limits of the modulator's electrode. The ground shield includes a grounding electrode disposed in a spaced-apart relationship with the modulator electrode along the ridge of the EAM structure, and a grounding termination used to couple the grounding electrode to a suitable ground location. The ground location may be either on-chip (such as the DC ground of the modulator itself) or off-chip (via an off-chip capacitor, with a wirebond connecting the grounding electrode to the capacitor). The use of a ground shield mitigates the effects that changes in the data rate have on effective length of the modulator as seen by the applied data signal.

Abstract: An electro-absorption modulator (EAM) is configured to include an on-chip AC ground plane that is used to terminate the high frequency RF input signal within the chip itself. This on-chip ground termination of the modulation input signal improves the frequency response of the EAM, which is an important feature when the EAM needs to support data rates in excess of 50 Gbd. By virtue of using an on-chip ground for the very high frequency signal content, it is possible to use less expensive off-chip components to address the lower frequency range of the data signal (i.e., for frequencies less than about 1 GHz).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to thermal control systems, photonic memory fabrics, and electro-absorption modulators (EAMs). For example, the thermal control systems efficiently move data in a memory fabric based on utilizing and controlling thermally controlling optical components. As another example, the EAMs are instances of optical modulators used to efficiently move data within digital circuits while maintaining thermally-stable optical modulation across a wide temperature range.

Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide extending a length; and a plurality of Radio Frequency (RF) electrodes configured to modulate an optical signal in the optical waveguide, wherein the RF electrodes include an RF crossing located an end of the length and that is configured to equalize the optical signal. The optical signal is equalized via destructive interference after the RF crossing for attenuating modulation amplitude. At or near the end of the length, high frequencies of the optical signal are already strongly attenuated whereas low frequencies of the optical signal are not such that the low frequencies are equalized after the RF crossing.

Abstract: A package includes a first die with a compute element and first region, a second die with a compute element and second region, and a bridging element connecting the first and second dies. The bridging element includes interconnect regions for electrical coupling, a first photonic path from the first interconnect region to the second, and a second photonic path in the reverse direction. A photonic transceiver is integrated into the bridging element, with one portion sending and receiving optical signals via the photonic paths, and the other portion located in an AMS block in the first die or second die near the memory and compute elements. The transceiver portions are connected by a short electrical interconnect (less than 2 mm).
