ETH integrates photonics and electronics on one chip

Researchers from ETH Zurich have integrated photonics and electronics on one chip. “If you convert the electronic signals into light signals using separate chips, you lose a significant amount of signal quality. This also limits the speed of data transmission using light,” says ETH researcher, Ueli Koch. The integration was achieved by placing the electronic ...
