Silicon RF-Photonic Filter and Down-Converter

An RF-photonic filter and down-converter system based on a compact and fully tunable silicon optical filter has been demonstrated and analyzed. Its frequency down-conversion was implemented using optical heterodyne detection with an injection locked laser. This system filters a 1.25 GHz-wide signal...
