High-density silicon optical interposer for inter-chip interconnects based on compact and high speed components

By integrating compact and high-speed silicon modulators and germanium photodiodes with light sources, we demonstrated a silicon optical interposer for inter-chip interconnects with a bandwidth density of 6.6 Tbps/cm2.
