Itekhnoloji yeSilicon photonics

Njengoko inkqubo ye-chip iya kuncipha ngokuthe ngcembe, iziphumo ezahlukeneyo ezibangelwa ukudibanisa ziba yinto ebalulekileyo echaphazela ukusebenza kwe-chip. Uqhagamshelo lweChip yenye yeebhotile zangoku zobugcisa, kwaye iteknoloji ye-silicon esekwe kwi-optoelectronics inokusombulula le ngxaki. Itekhnoloji yeSilicon photonic yintounxibelelwano lwamehloitekhnoloji esebenzisa i-laser beam endaweni yesiginali ye-electronic semiconductor ukuhambisa idatha. Yiteknoloji yesizukulwana esitsha esekwe kwi-silicon kunye ne-silicon-based substrate materials kwaye isebenzisa inkqubo ekhoyo ye-CMOSisixhobo sokubonauphuhliso kunye nokudibanisa. Inzuzo yayo enkulu kukuba inezinga eliphezulu kakhulu lokudluliselwa, elinokwenza isantya sothumelo lwedatha phakathi kwe-processor cores 100 amaxesha okanye ngaphezulu ngokukhawuleza, kunye nokusebenza kakuhle kwamandla kuphezulu kakhulu, ngoko kuthathwa njengesizukulwana esitsha seteknoloji ye-semiconductor.

Ngokwembali, ii-silicon photonics ziphuhlisiwe kwi-SOI, kodwa ii-wafers ze-SOI zibiza kakhulu kwaye aziyiyo eyona nto ilungileyo kuyo yonke imisebenzi eyahlukeneyo yeefoto. Ngexesha elifanayo, njengoko amanani edatha enyuka, ukuguqulwa kwesantya esiphezulu kwizinto ze-silicon kuba yibhotile, ngoko ke iintlobo zezixhobo ezintsha ezifana neefilimu ze-LNO, i-InP, i-BTO, i-polymers kunye nezinto ze-plasma ziye zaphuhliswa ukuphumeza ukusebenza okuphezulu.

Amandla amakhulu e-silicon photonics alele ekudibaniseni imisebenzi emininzi kwiphakheji enye kunye nokuvelisa uninzi okanye zonke, njengenxalenye ye-chip enye okanye i-chips, usebenzisa izibonelelo ezifanayo zokuvelisa ezisetyenziselwa ukwakha izixhobo ze-microelectronic eziphambili (jonga uMfanekiso 3). Ukwenza oko kuya kunciphisa kakhulu iindleko zokuhambisa idatha ngaphezuluiintsinga zamehlokunye nokudala amathuba eentlobo ngeentlobo zezicelo ezitsha zeradical kwiiifotonics, ukuvumela ukwakhiwa kweenkqubo ezinzima kakhulu ngexabiso elincinci kakhulu.

Usetyenziso oluninzi luvela kwiinkqubo ezintsonkothileyo zesilicon photonic, ezona zixhaphakileyo lunxibelelwano lwedatha. Oku kubandakanya unxibelelwano lwedijithali olukwizinga eliphezulu lonxibelelwano lwedijithali lwezicelo zoluhlu olufutshane, izikimu zokumodareyitha ezintsonkothileyo zokusetyenziswa komgama omde, kunye nonxibelelwano oluhambelanayo. Ukongeza kunxibelelwano lwedatha, inani elikhulu lezicelo ezitsha zale teknoloji iphononongwa kumashishini nakwimfundo ephakamileyo. Ezi zicelo ziquka: I-Nanophotonics (i-nano opto-mechanics) kunye ne-fiziksi ye-condensed, i-biosensing, i-nonlinear optics, iinkqubo ze-LiDAR, i-gyroscopes ebonakalayo, i-RF edibeneyo.optoelectronics, ii-transceivers zerediyo ezidibeneyo, unxibelelwano oluhambelanayo, olutshaimithombo yokukhanya, i-laser yokunciphisa ingxolo, i-gas sensors, i-wavelength ende kakhulu i-photonics edibeneyo, i-high-speed kunye ne-microwave processing signal, njl.
