I-Silicon Photonic Fantation Technology

Silicon PhotonicUbuchwepheshe bokuxhumana kwedatha
Ezigabeni eziningana zeAmadivayisi we-Photonic, Izakhi ze-Silicon Photonic zincintisana namadivayisi aphezulu asezingeni eliphakeme, okuxoxwe ngazo ngezansi. Mhlawumbe lokho esikubheka njengokusebenza okuguqula kakhulu ngaphakathiEzokuxhumanaIngabe ukudalwa kwamapulatifomu ahlanganisiwe ahlanganisa amamodeli, ama-detectors, ama-wavegcuides, nezinye izingxenye kwi-chip efanayo exhumana nomunye. Kwezinye izimo, ama-transistors nawo afakiwe kulamapulatifomu, avumele i-amplifier, ukuqina, kanye nempendulo kuyo yonke ihlanganiswe ku-chip efanayo. Ngenxa yezindleko zokuthuthukisa izinqubo ezinjalo, lo mzamo ngokuyinhloko uhloselwe izicelo zokuxhumana kwedatha kontanga. Futhi ngenxa yezindleko zokuthuthukisa inqubo yokukhiqiza ama-transistor, ukuvumelana okusafufusa emkhakheni ukuthi, kusuka ekubukeni okusebenzayo kanye nombono wezindleko, kunengqondo kakhulu ngekusasa elibonakalayo ukuhlanganisa ubuchwepheshe be-elektroniki ngokwenza izibopho noma ze-chip level.

Kukhona inani elisobala ekukwazi ukwenza ama-chip angahlanganisa ukusebenzisa amadivaysi kagesi futhi afeze ukuxhumana okubonakalayo. Iningi lezicelo zakuqala zeSilicon Photonics zazikuCiculital Data Communications. Lokhu kuqhutshwa ukungezwani okungokomzimba okuyisisekelo phakathi kwama-elektroni (fermions) kanye nama-photons (ama-bosons). Ama-elekthronikhi amahle nge-computing ngoba bobabili abakwazi ukuba endaweni efanayo ngasikhathi sinye. Lokhu kusho ukuthi basebenzisana kakhulu ngomunye nomunye. Ngakho-ke, kungenzeka ukusebenzisa ama-elektroni ukwakha amadivaysi amakhulu wokushintsha ama-nonlinear - ama-transistors.

Ama-Photon anezakhiwo ezihlukile: Ama-Photon amaningi angaba endaweni efanayo ngasikhathi sinye, futhi ngaphansi kwezimo ezikhethekile aziphazamisi. Kungakho kungenzeka ukuthi udlulise ama-trillions of bits wedatha ngomzuzwana nge-fiber eyodwa: akwenziwa ngokwakha umkhawulo wedatha nge-terabit ndwidth eyodwa.

Ezingxenyeni eziningi zomhlaba, i-fiber to ikhaya iyi-paradigm evelele yokufinyelela, yize lokhu akufakazelwa ukuthi kuyiqiniso e-United States, lapho kuqhuba khona nge-DSL nobunye ubuchwepheshe. Ngokufunwa njalo kwe-bandwidth, isidingo sokushayela ukudluliswa kwedatha okwengeziwe nokusebenza kahle ngokwengeziwe nge-fiber optics nakho kukhula ngokuqinile. Umkhuba obanzi emakethe yokuxhumana yedatha ukuthi njengoba ibanga lincipha, intengo yengxenye ngayinye incipha kakhulu ngenkathi ivolumu ikhula. Akumangazi ukuthi imizamo yokuhweba nge-Silicon Photonics Photonialization igxile kakhulu emsebenzini wevolumu ephezulu, izinhlelo ezinamabanga amafushane, ukuqondisa izikhungo zedatha kanye ne-computing ephezulu yokusebenza. Izicelo zesikhathi esizayo zizobandakanya ukuxhumeka kweBhodi-To-ebhodini, ukuxhumana okujwayelekile kwe-USB-ukwahlukanisa, futhi mhlawumbe ngisho nokuxhumana okuyisisekelo kwe-CPU ekugcineni, yize kuzokwenzeka ngezicelo ze-Chip zisacatshangelwa kahle. Yize kungakafiki esikalini semboni ye-CMOS, ama-Siliman Photonics aseqalile ukuba yimboni ebalulekile.
