A kind of low-power 10 Gbit/s CMOS 1∶4 demultiplexer

A 10 Gbit/s 1：4 demultiplexer（DEMUX） fabricated in 0. 18 μm CMOS （complementary metal-oxidesemiconductor transistor） technology for optical-fiber-link is presented. The system is constructed in tree-type structure and it includes a high-speed 1 ： 2 DEMUX, two low-speed 1 ： 2 DEMUXs, a divider, and input and output buffers for data and dock. To improve the circuit performance and reduce the power consumption, a latch structure with a common-gate topology and a single clock phase is employed in the high-speed 1 ： 2 DEMUX and the 5 GHz 1 ： 2 on-chip frequency divider, while dynamic CMOS logic is adopted in the low-speed l ： 2 DEMUXs. Measured results at 10 Gbit/s by 23^31 -1 pseudo random bit sequences （PRBS） via on-wafer testing indicate that it can work well with a power dissipation of less than 100 mW at 1.8 V supply voltage. The die area of the DEMUX is 0. 65 mm × 0. 75 mm.

12Gb/s 0.25μm CMOS Low-Power 1∶4 Demultiplexer

A low power 12Gb/s single-stage 1 ： 4 demultiplexer （DEMUX） applied in SONET OC-192 is realized in TSMC＇s mix-signal 0. 25μm CMOS. All of the circuits are in source coupled FET logic （SCFL） to achieve as high a speed as possible and suppress common mode distortions. This DEMUX is featured for achieving singlestage demultiplexing by using a quarter-rate IQ clock. This method not only reduces the components of the DEMUX but also lowers its power dissipation. The fabricated DEMUX operates error free at 12Gb/s by 231 - 1 pseudorandom bit sequences in on-wafer testing. The chip size is 0. 9mm × 0.9mm and the power dissipation is only 210mW with a single 2.5V supply.

20 Gbit/s 1∶2 demultiplexer of low-power using 0.18 μm CMOS

A 1 ： 2 demultiplexer（DEMUX） that is fabricated using 0. 18 μm CMOS （complementary metaloxide-semiconductor transistor） technology is presented. The DEMUX consists of a master-slave-slave, masterslave D flip-flops and output buffers. The D flip-flop employs a dynamic-loading structure and common-gate topology with single clock phase for the bias transistors. The dynamic-loading structure can make the circuit work faster because it decreases the charge/discharge time of the output node, and it consumes lower power because its working current is in a switch mode. In addition, the positive feedback loop, which is made up of a cross-coupled transistor pair in the latch, speeds up the circuit. Measurement results at 20 Gbit/s 2^23 - 1 pseudo random bit sequence （PRBS） via on-wafer testing show that the 1： 2 DEMUX can operate well. The power dissipation is 108 mW with the area of 475μm×578μm.

10 Gbit/s 0.25μm CMOS 1∶4 demultiplexer

A 10 Gbit/s (STM-64, OC-192) 1:4 demultiplexer (DEMUX) with 4-phase clock wasachieved in TSMC's standard 0.25 μm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technique. Allof the circuits are in source coupled FET logic (SCFL) to achieve as high as possible speed andsuppress common mode distortions. This DEMUX is featured by constant-delay buffers to generate a4-phase clock and adjust skews of the four channel outputs. The fabricated DEMUX operates error freeat 10 Gbit/s by 2^(31) -1 pseudorandom bit sequences (PRBS) via on-wafer testing. The measured rootmean square (rms) jitter, rising and failing edge of the eye-diagram are 11, 123 and 137 ps,respectively. The chip size is 0.9 mm x 1.2 mm and the power dissipation is 550 mW with a 3. 3 Vsupply.

Semi-vectorial analysis of a compact wavelength demultiplexer based on the tapered multimode interference coupler

Based on a parabolically tapered multimode interference （MMI） coupler with a deep-etched SiO2/SiON rib waveguide, a compact wavelength demultiplexer operating at 1.30 and 1.55 μm wavelengths is proposed and analysed by using three-dimensional semi-vectorial finite-difference beam propagation method （3D-SV-FD-BPM）. The results show that a MMI section of 330.0 μm in length, which is only 76% length of a straight MMI coupler, is achieved with the contrasts of 42.3 and 39.2dB in quasi-TE mode, and 38.4 and 37.8dB in quasi-TM mode at wavelengths 1.30 and 1.55μm, respectively, and the insertion losses below 0.2dB at both wavelengths and in both polarization states, The alternating direction implicit algorithm with the Crank-Nicholson scheme is applied to the discretization of the 3D-SV-FD-BPM formulation along the longitudinal direction. Moreover, a modified FD scheme is constructed to approximate the resulting equations along the transverse directions, in which the discontinuities of the derivatives of magnetic field components Hy and Hx along the vertical and horizontal interfaces, respectively, are involved.

Towards integrated mode-division demultiplexing spectrometer by deep learning

Miniaturized spectrometers have been widely researched in recent years,but few studies are conducted with on-chip multimode schemes for mode-division multiplexing(MDM)systems.Here we propose an ultracompact mode-division demultiplexing spectrometer that includes branched waveguide structures and graphene-based photodetectors,which realizes simultaneously spectral dispersing and light fields detecting.In the bandwidth of 1500-1600 nm,the designed spectrometer achieves the single-mode spectral resolution of 7 nm for each mode of TE_(1)-TE_(4) by Tikhonov regularization optimization.Empowered by deep learning algorithms,the 15-nm resolution of parallel reconstruction for TE_(1)-TE_(4) is achieved by a single-shot measurement.Moreover,by stacking the multimode response in TE_(1)-TE_(4) to the single spectra,the 3-nm spectral resolution is realized.This design reveals an effective solution for on-chip MDM spectroscopy,and may find applications in multimode sensing,interconnecting and processing.

Compact and high-efficient wavelength demultiplexing coupler based on high-index dielectric nanoantennas

Wavelength demultiplexing waveguide couplers have important applications in integrated nanophotonic devices. Two of the most important indicators of the quality of a wavelength demultiplexing coupler are coupling efficiency and splitting ratio. In this study, we utilize two asymmetric high-index dielectric nanoantennas directly positioned on top of a silicon-on insulator waveguide to realize a compact wavelength demultiplexing coupler in a communication band, which is based on the interference of the waveguide modes coupled by the two nanoantennas. We add a Au substrate for further increasing the coupling efficiency. This has constructive and destructive influences on the antenna＇s in-coupling efficiency owing to the Fabry-Perot（FP） resonance in the SiO2 layer. Therefore, we can realize a wavelength demultiplexing coupler with compact size and high coupling efficiency. This coupler has widespread applications in the areas of wavelength filters,on-chip signal processing, and integrated nanophotonic circuits.

Designing thermal demultiplexer: Splitting phonons by negative mass and genetic algorithm optimization

We propose the concept of thermal demultiplexer, which can split the heat flux in different frequency ranges intodifferent directions. We demonstrate this device concept in a honeycomb lattice with dangling atoms. From the view ofeffective negative mass, we give a qualitative explanation of how the dangling atoms change the original transport property.We first design a two-mass configuration thermal demultiplexer, and find that the heat flux can flow into different ports incorresponding frequency ranges roughly. Then, to improve the performance, we choose the suitable masses of danglingatoms and optimize the four-mass configuration with genetic algorithm. Finally, we give out the optimal configuration witha remarkable effect. Our study finds a way to selectively split spectrum-resolved heat to different ports as phonon splitter,which would provide a new means to manipulate phonons and heat, and to guide the design of phononic thermal devices inthe future.

High-performance and fabrication friendly polarization demultiplexer

A compact and fabrication friendly polarization demultiplexer(P-DEMUX) is proposed and characterized to enable wavelength-division-multiplexing and polarization-division-multiplexing simultaneously. The proposed structure is composed of a polarization-selective microring resonator in ultrathin waveguide and two bus channels in the silicon nitridesilica-silicon horizontal slot waveguides. In the slot waveguide, the transverse electric(TE) mode propagates through the silicon layer, while the transverse magnetic(TM) mode is confined in the slot region. In the designed ultra-thin waveguide, the TM mode is cut-off. The effective indexes of the TE modes for ultrathin and slot waveguides have comparable values. Thanks for these distinguishing features, the input TE mode can be efficiently filtered through the ultra-thin microring at the resonant wavelength, while the TM mode can directly output from the through port. Simulation results show that the extinction ratio of the proposed P-DEMUX for TE and TM modes are 33.21 dB and 24.97 dB, and the insertion losses are 0.346 dB and 0.324 dB, respectively, at the wavelength of 1551.64 nm. Furthermore, the device shows a broad bandwidth(> 100 nm) for an extinction ratio(ER) of > 20 dB. In addition, the proposed P-DEMUX also has a good fabrication tolerance for the waveguide width variation of-20 nm≤ △w_(g)≤ 20 nm and the microring width variation of -20 nm≤ △w_(r) ≤20 nm for a low insertion loss of < 0.75 dB and low ER of <-18 dB.

Bound in continuum states and induced transparency in mesoscopic demultiplexer with two outputs

We investigate the electronic transport in a simple mesoscopic cross structure made of two wires(stubs)grafted at the same point along a quantum waveguide.We show that the structure may exhibit important phenomena such as bound in continuum(BIC)states.These states are transformed into electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)resonance by detuning slightly the lengths of the stubs.The last phenomenon is used to propose and study a mesoscopic demultiplexer device with an input waveguide and two output waveguides.We give closed-form expressions of the geometrical parameters that allow a selective transfer of a given state in the first waveguide without perturbing the second waveguide.The effect of temperature on the transmission resonances is also examined by using Landauer-Büttiker formula.The analytical results of the dispersion relation and transmission and reflection coefficient are obtained using the Green's function method.

Various designed circuits for multiple-valued all-optical arithmetic are demonstrated. The terahertz-optical-asymmetric-demultiplexer (TOAD) switch is used as the basic structure unit in the proposed circuits due to its compact size, thermal stability, and low power operation.
