MIT researchers move closer to petabit-speed chips with breakthrough in photonic integration
SMRTR summary
MIT researchers are working to merge electronic and photonic chips, enabling future microchips to transmit data beyond one petabit per second while using far less energy than today's systems. Their new optical couplers act like the photonic equivalent of solder bumps, potentially making high-speed light-based data transfer practical for AI-driven data centers.
