Abstract

Optical interconnections have been proposed to replace electrical wires for global data communications in computing systems to alleviate communication bottlenecks on the electronic processing planes. An evaluation of the performance of the photonics layers for free space optical interconnections when using lead-lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) modulators, III-V semiconductor multiple quantum well modulators or vertical cavity surface emitting lasers transmitter technologies is presented. Also discussed are the real data throughputs and energy requirements for the implementation of the various network architectures.
