Analog optical computing primitives in silicon photonics.
Optical computing accelerators help alleviate bandwidth and power consumption bottlenecks in electronics. We show an approach to implementing logarithmic-type analog co-processors in silicon photonics and use it to perform the exponentiation operation and the recovery of a signal in the presence of multiplicative distortion. The function is realized by exploiting nonlinear-absorption-enhanced R...
متن کاملSilicon Photonics for Exascale
With the extraordinary growth in parallelism at all system scales driven by multicore architectures, computing performance is increasingly determined by how efficiently high bandwidth data is communicated among the numerous compute resources. High-performance systems are especially challenged by the growing energy costs dominated by data movement. As future computing systems aim to realize the ...
متن کاملThe Integration of Silicon Photonics and VLSI Electronics for Computing and Switching Systems
We review the potential benefits and challenges for achieving optical-interconnects to the chip via the native integration of silicon photonics components with VLSI electronics; and review the “macrochip” – a collection of contiguous silicon chips enabled by optical proximity communication. We summarize recent progress towards achieving low-power photonic links for the macrochip.
متن کاملDesigning Multisocket Systems with Silicon Photonics
To fuel an increasing need for parallel performance, system designers have resulted to using multiple sockets to provide more hardware parallelism. These multisocket systems have limited off-chip bandwidth due to their electrical interconnect which is both power and pin limited. Current systems often use of a Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) to get the most system memory bandwidth from li...
متن کاملGermanium-on-Silicon for Integrated Silicon Photonics
To meet the unprecedented demands for data transmission speed and bandwidth silicon integrated photonics that can generate, modulate, process and detect light signals is being developed. Integrated silicon photonics that can be built using existing CMOS fabrication facilities offers the tantalizing prospect of a scalable and cost-efficient solution to replace electrical interconnects. Silicon, ...
