Intel breaks record with optical CMOS device
SAN JOSE, Calif. --- Researchers from Intel Corp. have demonstrated a photo detector built in CMOS that the company claims is the highest performance optical component of its class to date. The avalanche photodetector (APD) described in a paper in the journal Nature Photonics shows the way to designs that could increase the distance or lower power and cost of optical links, Intel said.
The research effort is one of many small steps forward in silicon photonics in recent years from Intel. The ... (4 KB) |
