Abstract

Abstract

We propose power-efficient co-packaged interfaces for electrical switches. Using external light sources and coherent detection, they provide multi-Tb/s-per-fiber throughput, while tolerating both losses in integrated photonics and thermal (de)multiplexer shifts exceeding the channel spacing.
