Abstract:
We propose the first colorless coherent detection featuring invariant to arbitrary polarization rotation of both signal and remote LO. We demonstrate dual-channel 1.85-Tb/s and 10.11-Tb/s self-homodyne detection in SiP platform over 10-km SSMF and 2-km 7-core MCF without optical filtering or polarization control.
