Manufacturable monolithically integrated InP dual-port coherent receiver for 100G PDM-QPSK applications

We developed a single-chip InP coherent receiver for detection of PDM-QPSK signals, which meets specifications for 100G between 1530 and 1570 nm. Integration includes a mode converter for efficient coupling from an SMF array.
