80-km Transmission with Silicon Micro-Ring Modulators and Kramers-Kronig Direct Detection

Single sideband signals generated by micro-ring modulators were demonstrated for 80-km standard single-mode fiber transmission with Kramers-Kronig direct detection. The integrated transmitter with KK receiver is suitable for future low-cost, low-power and low-footprint datacenter interconnects.
