Abstract:
To clear fundamental limits of electrical interconnection, WDM optical interconnection should be implemented in Si photonics. Challenging issues are strongly connected with temperatures in CMOS processing and in operation. We will report a solution of Ge backend processing and a proposal to avoid temperature fluctuation of light wavelengths.
