TLDR
imec’s silicon photonics active platform accessible through multi-project wafer runs is presented.Abstract:
Silicon photonics has become in the past years an important technology adopted by a growing number of
industrial players to develop their next generation optical transceivers. However most of the technology
platforms established in CMOS fabrication lines are kept captive or open to only a restricted number of
customers. In order to make silicon photonics accessible to a large number of players several initiatives exist
around the world to develop open platforms. In this paper we will present imec’s silicon photonics active
platform accessible through multi-project wafer runs.read more

Silicon CMOS-integrated nano-photonics for computer and data communications beyond 100G
TL;DR: It is shown that the new emerging large-volume markets loosely defined as Computercom will demand new standards and new technologies, and how the balance between single-channel bit rate, and number of wavelengthmultiplexed and spatially multiplexed optical channels can help to satisfy the need for huge total bandwidth, while keeping cost low and power efficiency high.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantify intrawafer and interwafer variation of the position and relative spacing of resonance wavelengths for the microring arrays and confirm prior predictions that the absolute resonance positions of such devices cannot be controlled across wafers or even across reticles within a wafer.
