Energy efficient phase shifters for high performance optical signal processing with adaptive filter structures

• Applicant: Professor Dr.-Ing. Peter Krummrich
• Subject Area: Electronic Semiconductors, Components and Circuits, Integrated Systems, Sensor Technology, Theoretical Electrical Engineering
• Term: from 2017 to 2023
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 389348913

The targets of the project comprise the investigation and exemplary fabrication of adaptive, planar, integrated optical filter structures which can be used to mitigate the linear distortions occurring in long haul data transmission systems. The filter structures will be more energy efficient than the respective implementations in the digital domain and will enable the implementation of concepts which are not realizable by electronic digital signal processing.
