CMOS Compatible Guided-Wave Tunable Optical Equalizer

A compact 4 th -order pole-zero optical filter fabricated entirely in a silicon complementary metal-oxide semiconductor foundry is configured as a tunable optical equalizer. Equalization of a bandwidth-limited 10-Gb/s signal is demonstrated with a single voltage control.
