Download or read book High Efficiency Silicon Photonic Interconnects written by Liang Cao and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Silicon photonic has provided an opportunity to enhance future processor speed by replacing copper interconnects with an on chip optical network. Although photonics are supposed to be efficient in terms of power consumption, speed, and bandwidth, the existing silicon photonic technologies involve problems limiting their efficiency. Examples of limitations to efficiency are transmission loss, coupling loss, modulation speed limited by electro-optical effect, large amount of energy required for thermal control of devices, and the bandwidth limit of existing optical routers. The objective of this dissertation is to investigate novel materials and methods to enhance the efficiency of silicon photonic devices. The first part of this dissertation covers the background, theory and design of on chip optical interconnects, specifically silicon photonic interconnects. The second part describes the work done to build a 300mm silicon photonic library, including its process flow, comprised of basic elements like electro-optical modulators, germanium detectors, Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) interconnects, and a high efficiency grating coupler. The third part shows the works done to increase the efficiency of silicon photonic modulators, unitizing the X(3) nonlinear effect of silicon nanocrystals to make X(2) electro-optical modulators on silicon, and increasing the efficiency of thermal control by incorporating micro-oven structures in electro-optical modulators. The fourth part introduces work done on dynamic optical interconnects including a broadband optical router, single photon level adiabatic wavelength conversion, and optical signal delay. The final part summarizes the work and talks about future development."--Abstract.

Download or read book Optical Interconnects written by Ray T. Chen and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes fully embedded board level optical interconnect in detail including the fabrication of the thin-film VCSEL array, its characterization, thermal management, the fabrication of optical interconnection layer, and the integration of devices on a flexible waveguide film. All the optical components are buried within electrical PCB layers in a fully embedded board level optical interconnect. Therefore, we can save foot prints on the top real estate of the PCB and relieve packaging difficulty reduced by separating fabrication processes. To realize fully embedded board level optical interconnects, many stumbling blocks need to be addressed such as thin-film transmitter and detector, thermal management, process compatibility, reliability, cost effective fabrication process, and easy integration. The material presented eventually will relieve such concerns and make the integration of optical interconnection highly feasible. The hybrid integration of the optical interconnection layer and electrical layers is ongoing.
