Slow Light with Photonic Crystals for On-Chip Optical Interconnects
Figure 1
(a) Propagation delay of
silicon optical waveguides as compared to copper electrical wires
(cf. [4]). (b) Comparison
of bandwidth density of EIs to that of a single-channel OI as a function of
ITRS year and technology node. The use of a multichannel OI can increase
bandwidth density over that of EIs (cf. [4]).
