Monolithically integrated 112 Gbps PAM4 optical transmitter and receiver in a 45 nm CMOS-silicon photonics process.

We demonstrate a transmitter and receiver in a silicon photonics platform for O-band optical communication that monolithically incorporates a modulator driver, traveling-wave Mach-Zehnder modulator, control circuitry, photodetector, and transimpedance amplifier (TIA) in the GlobalFoundries Fotonix (45SPCLO) platform. The transmitter and receiver show an open 112 Gbps PAM4 eye at a 4.3 pJ/bit energy efficiency, not including the laser.

[Involvement of amygdala central nucleus in the regulation of cardiovascular functions].

Effects of high frequency stimulation of the amygdala central nucleus involved a selective decrease in the activity: an increase in the activity of the inferior cardiac nerve and a simultaneous decrease in the activity of the vertebral nerve, as well as an obvious BP increase. Bilateral electrolytic lesions of the same amygdala structure accompanied with an overload of the higher nervous activity induced no hypertensions. The role of the amygdala central nucleus in control of cardiovascular functions is discussed.

[The role of the paraventricular hypothalamic nuclei in the development of chronic neurogenic hypertension and the formation of a self-stimulation reaction].

Effects of bilateral electric lesion of the hypothalamic paraventricular nuclei on cardiovascular components of the defense response and on the self-stimulation operant behaviour, were studied in rats. Overloading of the highest nervous activity induced no hypertension in these animals, though the self-stimulation frequency increased.

[The physiological mechanisms of the neurohumoral regulation of vascular tonus].

Neuronal organisation of hypothalamo-bulbar mechanisms of regulation of vascular tonus was studied in anesthetised and immobilised cats. The descending influence of posterior, tuberal and anterior structures of the hypothalamus on the activity of antidromically identified sympatho-activating reticulospinal neurons of the ventrolateral region of medulla oblongata is realised by mono-, oligo- and polysynaptic mechanisms. Chronic neurogenic hypertension was induced in rats by overloading the higher nervous activity.

[Functional state of the positive reward system of the hypothalamus in arterial hypertension].

Effects of acute and chronic arterial hypertension on self-stimulation operant behaviour were studied in cats and rats. Small doses of noradrenaline facilitated the self-stimulation, whereas high doses depressed or stopped it. The depressive effect was accompanied by an obvious increase in the blood pressure.
