Co-package technology platform for low-power and low-cost data centers

Co-package technology platform for low-power and low-cost data centers

June 2021 - UCL joins industrial companies and other universities across Europe to work on co-package technology platform for low-power and low-cost data centers.

Universities and industry across Europe work on co-package technology platform for low-power and low-cost data centers.  The inter-institution research team reports the recent advances introduced by the European research project L3MATRIX in silicon photonics and in photonic-electronic integration. The advances in the areas of system architecture and design, light sources, fabrication of individual silicon photonics components and conventional and slow-light modulators provide a toolbox of technologies and architectures to address related challenges.

 

The research team has developed their strategy for a full 3D vertical assembly approach and their proposed system architecture.  The results provide a step toward future low-power and low-cost data centers.

 

The findings were published in June 2021 in Applied Sciences -
