Optoelectronic Integration Trends and Applications
Energy consumption in optical networking for ethernet, data centers, 5G, and other emerging applications such as quantum photonics and LiDAR is soaring because of the rapidly growing data traffic. The bottleneck is the limited voltage-bandwidth performance of existing integrated photonics solutions, which poses a serious challenge for meeting the tight power consumption requirements from network builders. In this session, HyperLight will talk about their breakthrough solution which is an integrated photonics platform based on thin-film lithium niobate. This scalable photonics platform offers sub-volt electro-optic modulators with a 3-dB bandwidth > 100 GHz as well as monolithically integrated ultralow loss passive optical components. This emerging platform would save building and running costs for network operators and enable a wide range of high speed and power efficient applications.
