Abstract
We present an optical spatial quantized analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and experimentally demonstrate 8-level quantization consuming only 7.2pJ per quantization operation. Measured 8ps full-width half-maximum photodetector outputs, promises the potential of realizing a 3bit 125GS/s ADC.
