The US Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory recently announced the development of the world's first truly nano-sized silicon waveguide that enables chip-on-board communications.
The Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory undoes previous attempts to develop new silicon photonics elements through a newly developed quasi-particle called "hybrid plasmon polariton (HPP)". Modes, Optical losses that are encountered on the way to optimize photonics and plasma systems.
The method used in the laboratory combines high quantum confinement and low signal loss, and also enables nano-scale on-chip lasers, quantum operations, and single-photon all-optical switches (single-photon). Technologies such as all-optical switches) open a door.
The above research results were created by the researcher of Materials Science at Lawrence Berkeley and Xiang Zhang, director of the Nanoscience and Engineering Center at the University of California, Berkeley. Volunteers Volker Sorger and Ziliang Ye were also involved. They stated that HPP will open a new era for nano-waveguides that support in-chip optical communications, signal modulation, and on-chip lasers, biomedical sensors, and other applications.
Quasi-particles known as surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are known to be used to direct light across a metal surface to generate surface electron waves--that is, plasmons--and then Can interact with photons. Unfortunately, SPP suffers severe signal loss when it passes through the metal.
Researchers at Berkeley Lab solved the above problem by adding a low-k dielectric layer between metal and optical waveguide semiconductor Components to form a metal oxide semiconductor architecture that can be imported. Redistribution of light waves into low-K dielectric gaps with less optical loss.
The HPP produced by the above method can be conducted in a more free way, allowing engineers to use standard CMOS chips to create nanoscale waveguides with optical characteristics comparable to those of rare triple-five semiconductor compounds. Researchers estimate that this new technology can be pushed into the commercial market in 2 to 5 years.
