As AI, cloud computing, and data centers demand exponentially higher bandwidth, traditional copper interconnects can no longer meet power and performance requirements. Silicon photonics greatly reduces power consumption while increasing throughput, making it a critical foundation for future computing infrastructure.

Key applications include high-speed data center interconnects, AI compute clusters, optical transceivers, co-packaged optics (CPO), LiDAR, optical sensing, and measurement systems.

Data centers require high bandwidth, low power, and high reliability. Silicon photonics supports ultra-high-speed links (800G/1.6T/3.2T+), reduces power consumption, extends transmission reach, and is compatible with CMOS fabrication for large-scale, cost-efficient deployment.

A silicon photonic modulator converts electrical signals into optical signals and is a key component of high-speed optical interconnects. Common types include Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) modulators and microring modulators.

Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) integrates optical engines directly with switching ASICs to dramatically reduce power and latency. Silicon photonics is ideal for CPO due to its compact footprint, low power, and ability to achieve high-density integration.

Challenges include coupling efficiency, laser integration, packaging complexity, thermal management, and co-design with electronic systems. Additionally, cost, yield, and scalability are critical constraints for mass adoption.
