For the development of minimized and high-rate photonic-integrated fiber Bragg grating interrogation (FBGI) systems, arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) has been widely used as one of the critical components. In this paper, we present an 8-channel SOI-based AWG for a photonic integrated FBG interrogation microsystem. The channel spacing of the AWG is designed to be 3 nm to meet a high-dynamic-range demodulation requirement. The core size of the fabricated AWG is about 335 × 335 μm2. The simulation results and experimental results are in high agreement, showing that AWG has a fine transmission spectrum with crosstalk below −16 dB, nonuniformity below 0.4 dB, insertion loss below −6.35 dB, 3 dB bandwidth about 1.3 nm and 10 dB bandwidth of 2.3 nm. The proposed AWG can be applied perfectly to the SOI-based AWG demodulation microsystem, exhibiting a large dynamic range of 1.2 nm, the resolution for measurements is 1.27 pm and a high accuracy of 20.6 pm.

A time-division-multiplexing (TDM) system transceiver with 4–channel 10 Gb/s interfaces to achieve 40 Gb/s non-return to zero (NRZ) transmission is presented. The front-end components are implemented in an indium phosphide double hetero-junction bipolar transistor (InP DHBT) technology. They include a 4:1 multiplexer with a voltage controlled oscillator and clock multiplication unit, modulator drivers for electro-absorption and differential lithium-niobate modulators, trans-impedance amplifier, limiting amplifier and 1:4 demultiplexer with clock and data recovery circuit. The transceiver was used to teat optical transmission over a 2.26 km link with a 40 Gb/s, 231-1 pseudo-random bit sequence (PRBS) data. The transmitter achieves better than 12.9 dB extinction ratio, 1 ps added root mean square (RMS) jitter and 4 dBm output power. Without any optical amplification the receiver achieves -9.1 dBm back to back sensitivity at a bit error rate (BER) of 10-12 and a high dynamic range of 12.5 dBm.
