Silicon Photonics
Silicon photonics is a large-scale integration technology of silicon-based optoelectronics based on photons and electronics as information carriers, which can greatly improve the performance of integrated chips, and is the basic supporting technology for emerging industries such as big data, artificial intelligence, and mobile communications, and can be widely used in big data centers, 5G, Internet of Things and other industries. Silicon photonics technology uses the working mechanism and optoelectronic characteristics of photons, electronics and optoelectronic devices in silicon materials, and uses micro-nano processing technology compatible with integrated circuits to develop and manufacture optoelectronic chips on silicon wafers.
