We demonstrated three-dimensional (3D) all-optical digital signal transmission by the monolithically integrated photonic inter-layer vias (P-ILVs) with the effect of increased surface recombination velocity through ion-bombardment. The resonant wavelength of the device was modulated with the recovery time constant of 175 ps, which is almost 6 times shorter than that of the device without an ion-bombardment effect in our previous work. 4.2 or 6.8 Gb/s digital signal transmission can be potentially realized in this device. Therefore, this kind of device is a promising candidate for future high speed all-optical signal processing in monolithic 3D photonic integrated circuits (3D-PICs).
