Abstract :
We demonstrate the first binary-phase-shift-keying (BPSK) link based on silicon microring resonators, with an operational bit-rate at 10 Gb/s. Bit-error-rate measurements and eye diagrams are used to compare the link´s performance with conventional BPSK modulation and demodulation techniques.
