Reconfigurable radiofrequency (RF) signal generation in the 30–300 GHz range is attractive for many applications. W-band (75–110 GHz) is currently targeted by both wireless and satellite commun…
We report of a silicon photonics (SiP) flat-top bandpass microwave photonic (MWP) filter with large out-of-band power rejection (OBPR) of up to more than 40 dB and exhibiting central frequency tuna…
Currently, due to the 6G revolution, applications ranging from communication to sensing are experiencing an increasing and urgent need of software-defined ultra-wideband (UWB) and tunable radio fre…
We propose a novel photonic-integrated single-sideband (SSB) modulator realized in silicon on insulator technology operating either in suppressed-carrier or full-carrier mode with continuously tuna…
We report on the characterization of a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) for the generation of a RF carrier in the millimeter-wave band up to the sub-THz region. The circuit is implemented in silic…
This work reports the first realization of a combined radar&lidar system based on silicon-on-insulator photonic integrated circuit (PIC). The software-defined architecture comprises a frequency-fle…
Thermally controlled silicon photonics microwave phase shifters suffer from slow reconfiguration time that practically limits their application fields. A microwave photonics phase shifter exploitin…
In the last decades, photonic technologies have been increasingly proposed for microwave and millimeter-wave applications, opening the way to the development of a new field of research known as Mic…
High-order distributed feedback resonators realized in silicon-on-insulator technology for the implementation of high-performance integrated optical filters are reported. This approach combines des…
