Crosstalk-reduced large scale silicon photonic integrated circuit switch array
EF 2014-15
Résumé
This proposed research aims to develop highly advanced integrated systems, consisting of a silicon photonic network switch, integrated with CMOS control electronics. The target application is Huawei's optical network, which enables the transmission and routing of cellular phone and internet data traffic. This project will result in new knowledge on the topic on components and architectures for large-scale photonic network switches and control methodologies. The results will be incorporated into products under development at Huawei Canada's R&D division. Several students will be trained in a discipline of significant importance to Canada, and in particular, Huawei Canada, who is in need of silicon electronic photonic integrated circuit designers.
