Abstract
This paper talks about the developments in silicon photonic devices which exploit the inherent high refractive index contrasts achievable on an SOI platform. We will focus on the optical modulator which has been designed for speeds up to 40Gbps. We will also describe the design and performance of a photonic integrated transmitter chip, which has been demonstrated to transmit at an aggregate data rate of 200Gbps.
