Converting microwave and telecom photons with a silicon photonic nanomechanical interface

Existing solutions to interface the microwave and optical domains lack either scalability or efficiency. Here, the authors demonstrate a CMOS compatible converter between microwave and optical signals based on silicon an optomechanical device with a total bidirectional transduction efficiency of 1.2...

Sumario:Existing solutions to interface the microwave and optical domains lack either scalability or efficiency. Here, the authors demonstrate a CMOS compatible converter between microwave and optical signals based on silicon an optomechanical device with a total bidirectional transduction efficiency of 1.2% at millikelvin temperatures.
