    Abstract

    We report optical amplification in Al2O3:Er3+ with a gain bandwidth of 80 nm and peak gain of 2.0 dB/cm at 1533 nm, data transmission at 170 Gbit/s without added bit-error penalty and monolithic integration of these active Al2O3:Er3+ waveguides with passive silicon-on-insulator waveguides.
