Wavelength Division Multiplexed Optical Interconnects Using Femtosecond Optical Pulses

چکیده
The application of well-known concepts from the telecommunications industry to optical interconnects is common; however, significant modifications of the typical approaches may be required to keep costs low. We suggest such an approach by demonstrating the operation of a multiple channel chip-to-chip wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) interconnect through a single fiber using GaAs diodes flip-chip bonded onto silicon.

Wavelength Division Multiplexed Optical Interconnect Using Short Pulses
We demonstrate operation of a wavelength division multiplexed chip-to-chip optical interconnect using surfacenormal electroabsorption modulators, and a modelocked laser as a single broadband source. The link was successfully operated at 80 Mb/s. While this rate was limited by the repetition rate of the modelocked source, individual CMOS circuits and optoelectronic devices have been shown to wor...
متن کاملSingle-frame measurement of the complete spatiotemporal intensity and phase of ultrashort laser pulses using wavelength-multiplexed digital holography
We show that a simple (few-element) arrangement for wavelength-multiplexed digital holography allows the measurement of the electric field E x ,y , t of a femtosecond laser pulse on a single shot. A slightly rotated twodimensional diffractive optical element and a variable-wavelength filter together generate multiple spectrally resolved digital holograms that are simultaneously captured in a si...
متن کاملOptical Interconnects to Silicon Chips Using Short Pulses
Processor speeds continue to increase rapidly due to the scaling of CMOS line-widths, but electrical interconnect speeds have not grown at the same rate. The loss mechanisms in electrical interconnects limit their ultimate capacity. Optical interconnects have the potential to alleviate this interconnect bottleneck. At short scales such as board-to-board, chip-to-chip, and on-chip, the important...
