A Time Domain Analysis on Chip High Speed VLSI Optical Interconnection Network

Abstract

Intrachip optical interconnects (OIs) have the potential to outperform electrical wires and to ultimately, solve the communication problem, and to obtain high-performance integrated circuits. In this study, the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) is used as a reference to fulfill the requirements of silicon-based ICs must satisfy to successfully perform copper electrical interconnects (IEs).

Keywords: Integrated optoelectronic circuits, optoelectronics, optical interconnects (ICs), silicon photonics
