ABSTRACT:
An optical interconnection system for integrated circuits has an optical source that is split into at least two parts. One part is modulated and the other part is transmitted to a detector and input on the local oscillator signal in homodyne detection. A single source may be split many ways to provide a plurality of beams for modulating and a plurality of local oscillator inputs to separate detectors. Both inter and intra wafer connections are described.
