ABSTRACT:
Photonic interconnect reconfigurably couples integrated circuits such as microprocessor, memory or other logic components. Detector, modulator, broad-band coupler and waveguide elements provide transmit and receive capability on CMOS substrate. Computer-implemented design software and reusable component library automate photonic and circuit design and simulation for manufacturability.
