Optical fiber networks,
which make up the
backbone of the internet,
rely on many electrical
signal processing devices.
Nanoscale silicon photonic
network components,
such as phase shifters,
could boost optical
network speed, capacity,
and reliability. To design
these small but powerful
devices, a team at the
Swiss Federal Institute
of Technology Lausanne
(EPFL) uses simulation
to optimize both optical
and electromechanical
performance.
FIGURE 1
The modern internet-connected world
is often described as wired, but most
core network data traffic is actually
carried by optical fiber - not electric
wires. Despite this, existing infrastructure
still relies on many electrical signal
processing components embedded
inside fiber optic networks. Replacing
these components with photonic devices
could boost network speed, capacity,
and reliability. To help realize the
potential of this emerging technology, a
multinational team at the Swiss Federal
Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL)
has developed a prototype of a silicon
photonic phase shifter, a device that
could become an essential building block
for the next generation of optical fiber
data networks.
