Dynamic optical interconnections

Optics Letters, 1987
An optical configuration is described that uses an addressable reflective component (a liquid-crystal light valve) permitting free-space interconnections between points located on the same substrate. The scheme is attractive for generating programmable interconnections between electronic elements located on the same chip or wafer, in particular since ...

On the limits of optical interconnects

Applied Optics, 1992
The density capabilities of free-space optical interconnects are analyzed by applying Gabor's theory of information. It is shown that it is possible to increase the space-bandwidth product capabilities of space-variant interconnect schemes if they have symmetry properties.

On-Chip Optical Interconnect

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2009
We describe a cost-effective and low-power-consumption approach for on-chip optical interconnection. This approach includes an investigation into architectures, devices, and materials. We have proposed and fabricated a bonded structure of an Si-based optical layer on a large-scale integration (LSI) chip.

Photorefractive Dynamic Optical Interconnects

SPIE Proceedings, 1988
We present and demonstrate a set of dynamic optical interconnects which are based on the double phase conjugate mirror with photorefractive wave mixing. These devices are bidirectional, self-adjusting, and controllable in real time. Uses in various interconnection modes are given.

Rationale for optical interconnect

Proceedings of 2010 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2010
The System on Chip (SoC) approach is now the essential solution for delivering competitive performance and cost in today's challenging electronics market. Ever-increasing integration density means that many design and fabrication issues arise however, and the electrical limits of interconnect wires are in particular a limiting factor for performance ...

Optical Interconnects for Network on Chip

2006 1st International Conference on Nano-Networks and Workshops, 2006
This paper resumes some state-of-the-art results of research in view of the realization of optical interconnects as physical link for Network on Chip (NoC). Emphasis is given in particular to amorphous Silicon technology for its actual technological compatibility with CMOS microchips.

Alignability of optical interconnects

Annual Meeting Optical Society of America, 1989
A theory for analyzing the alignability, the degree of difficulty of aligning the devices and light beams, of a given optical interconnection system is developed. From various experiments it has been found that the alignment of a basic optical interconnect consisting of one beam and one device is a random process, N(0,σ).

Optical interconnects in systems

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2000
Future enhancement of system performance will decreasingly rely on reduction in transistor dimensions. Rather, performance gains will increasingly come from improved hardware and software architectures and emerging technologies such as optical interconnects, which provide a new design space for system designers.
