Abstract

Abstract : Error‐free transmission of 10 Gbit/s non‐return to zero optical signals along 2.5 cm long silicon germanium waveguides at a wavelength of 1.98 μm is demonstrated. Bit error rate measurements confirm the absence of penalty during the transmission through a subwavelength of 1.3 and 2.2 μm wide waveguides.
