To break through this bottleneck, researchers are trying to integrate photonics into silicon devices.

«We strongly believe that a silicon - photonic switch is a key device for achieving sustainable growth of traffic bandwidth in optical networks, including both telecommunications and data communications, and eventually computer communications.»

The new device, referred to technically as a «fully integrated non-duplicate polarization - diversity silicon - photonic switch,» consists of a single 8 x 8 grid of 2 x 2 element switches.

These sources are fabricated on a compact, silicon - based integrated photonics platform, which enables hundreds of devices — in this case, frequency combs — to be fabricated on a single small - area die.

The device brings researchers closer to producing silicon photonic chips that compute and shuttle data with light instead of electrons.

For example, we will be able to collaborate with researchers that work on integration of active and passive devices in silicon for telecommunication («Silicon Photonics for Future Systems» EPSRC program grant) or sensing applications («Mid-IR silicon photonics sources, detectors and sensors» funded by the Royal Society) and that will certainly facilitate progress achieved in MIGRATION.»

So far, research in mid-IR group IV photonics has focused on silicon - based devices for shorter wavelengths due to its availability, low cost, maturity of fabrication processes, possibility for photonics - electronics integration and a good transparency.
