Abstract
A PIC having at least three fiber-to-chip coupling locations, an InP-based polarization handling unit, at least two optical splitter-combiners, at least two optical receivers, and a plurality of semiconductor-based optical waveguides. The plurality of semiconductor-based optical waveguides are configured and arranged to optically connect a first fiber-to-chip coupling location with a first optical receiver via a first optical splitter-combiner, a second fiber-to-chip coupling location with the at least two optical receivers via the InP-based polarization handling unit and the at least two optical splitter-combiners, and a third fiber-to-chip coupling location with a second optical receiver via a second optical splitter-combiner. An opto-electronic system including said PIC.
