TL;DR: The various levels of a server interconnect hierarchy are reviewed and the current status of optical interconnect technology for these different levels is reviewed.

TL;DR: Time-dependent spontaneous Raman spectra of optically pumped GaAs have been measured with subpicosecond time resolution and substantial time-dependent changes are observed in the spectra which result from screening of the LO phonons by the free carriers and the relaxation of thefree carriers to the band edges.

TL;DR: In this paper, a chip-like optoelectronic packaging structure (Optochip), assembled directly onto an organic card (Optocard), is developed for supporting terabit/second chip-to-chip data transfers over organic cards within high-performance servers, switch routers, and other intensive computing systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, photoconductively shorting a charged coplanar transmission line with 80 fs laser pulses was shown to yield electrical pulses shorter than 0.6 ps, after propagating 8 mm on the line.

TL;DR: A 4x4 spatially non-blocking Mach-Zehnder based silicon optical switch fabricated using processes fully compatible with standard CMOS successfully demonstrates operation in all 9 unique switch states and 12 possible I/O routing configurations.
