3 Photonics Applications Wireless RF Distribution Chemical Analysis Enterprise Communication PC, Server Interconnects Health Environmental Monitoring Photonics could impact all of these. But today costs are prohibitive. 3

4 Processor History Number of transistors per chip is increasing Intel co-founder G. Moore predicted doubling of transistors approximately every 2 years (Electronic Magazine, 1965) 4

5 Electronics: Economics of Moore s s Law SCALING + WAFER SIZE + HIGH VOLUME = LOWER COST Integration & increased functionality 5

6 Tera-leap to Parallelism: ENERGY-EFFICIENT PERFORMANCE Hyper-Threading Instruction level parallelism Dual Core 10 s to 100 s of cores Quad-Core The days of single-core chips Era of Tera-Scale Computing More performance Using less energy TIME All this compute capability may require high speed optical links 6

7 Future Physical I/O for a Tera-scale Servers Core-Core: Core: On Die Interconnect fabric Memory: Package 3D Stacking Chip-Chip: Chip: Fast Copper FR4 or Flex cables Memory Memory Tb/s of I/O Tera-scale CPU Memory CPU 2 Memory Integrated Tb/s Optical Chip? 7

11 The Opportunity of Silicon Photonics Enormous ($ billions) CMOS infrastructure, process learning, and capacity Draft continued investment in Moore s s law Potential to integrate multiple optical devices Micromachining could provide smart packaging Potential to converge computing & communications To benefit from this optical wafers must run alongside existing product. 11

12 Silicon as an Optical Material Intel Litho Photon Energy (ev) Wavelength (µm) eV 1.12µm Comms Window Transparent > ~1.1 μm High index CMOS Compatible Low cost material Low light emission efficiency No electro-optical effect No detection in μm Silicon traditionally NOT optical material of choice 12

14 Silicon Photonics Motivation & applications History & progress Intel s s Research Program Future Work Summary 14

15 Intel s s Silicon Photonics Research First: Innovate to prove silicon is a viable optical material 15

16 Intel s s Silicon Photonics Research Continuous Wave Silicon Raman Laser (Feb 05) Electrically Pumped Hybrid Silicon laser (September 2006) 40 Gb/s TODAY 1GHz ( Feb 04) 1GHz 10 Gb/s (Apr (Apr 05) 40 Gb/s (Jul 07) Achieved 40 Gb/s for most devices Next: Focus on integration 16

17 Integration Vision Time Filter ECL Modulator Drivers Multiple Channels First: Prove Silicon good optical material Receiver Chip Integrated in Silicon Photodetectors DEMUX Taper Photodetector CMOS Circuitry TIA TIA Passive Alignment Driver Chip Passive Align FUTURE Monolithic? Lasers MUX Next Integration: silicon devices into hybrid modules Increasing silicon integration over time 17

18 Building Block Research 18

19 Guiding Light with Si Waveguides Ex: Rib waveguide SEM IMAGES Silicon Silicon oxide oxide Proven area for silicon High index = small structures Strip and Photonic crystals for further scaling Splitters, couplers, gratings, AWGs, MMIs have all been demonstrated Continue to reduce size while maintaining performance 19

20 Options for Integrating Light Sources Bonded Hybrid Laser Silicon grating Attached Laser Gold bumps Alignment groove Mirror Hybrid Silicon Laser Bond InP based material to Silicon No alignment Many lasers with one bonding step Amenable to high integration Potentially lowest cost Off-chip laser Off-chip Laser High power laser required Requires fiber attach Non-integrated solution Direct Attached Laser Expensive Tight alignment tolerances Requires gold metal bonding Passive alignment challenges Less Expensive 20

21 Hybrid Silicon Laser Collaboration with UCSB The Indium Phosphide emits the light into the silicon waveguide The silicon acts as laser cavity: Silicon waveguide routes the light End Facets or gratings are reflectors/mirrors Light bounces back and forth and gets amplified by InP based material Laser performance determined by Silicon waveguide No alignment needed 10 s if not 100 s of lasers with ONE bond 21

22 Hybrid Laser Process 1) A waveguide is etched in silicon 2) The Indium phosphide is processed to make it a good light emitter 3) Both materials are exposed to the oxygen plasma to form the glass-glue 4) The two materials are bonded together under low heat 22

23 Hybrid Laser Process 5) The Indium phosphide is etched and electrical contacts are added 6) Photons are emitted from the Indium Phosphide when a voltage is applied 7) The light is coupled into the silicon waveguide which forms the laser cavity. Laser light emanates from the device. 23

29 Photodetection Silicon does not absorb IR well Using SiGe to extend to 1.3µm+ Must overcome lattice mismatch Ge Bulk Films of Si and Ge Strained Si 1-x Ge x on Si Relaxed Si 1-x Ge x on Si Si a Ge ~.565 nm a Si ~.543 nm misfit dislocation Misfit dislocations typically create threading dislocations which h degrade device performance - dark current (I( dk ) goes up. Must simultaneously achieve required speed, responsivity, & dark current. 29

32 Low Cost Assembly Use passive alignment and lithographically defined silicon micromachining 32

33 Challenge: Packaging Example: Optical Interface Package topside Connection? Monolithic Integration? Unlikely PROCESSOR FIBERS ORGANIC PACKAGE SOCKET FR4 MOTHERBOARD Board connection? Issues: Connector cost, assembly cost, testing, reliability and compatibility with existing electrical packages Multiple approaches. Must balance performance, flexibility and feasibility 33

34 CMOS Intelligence Intel 10 km XENPAK Serializer De-serializer Electronics are needed to control photonics no optical logic Transimpedance & Limiting Amplifiers fo photodetection Drivers for lasers/modulators Also Clock Data Recovery, Serializers/Deserializers,, etc. Laser Driver Control and Monitor Microprocessor Use hybrid attached CMOS electronics. Explore monolithic integration over time 34

35 Integration: Hybrid? Photonics and electronics processed separately 10 Gbps electronics could use < 0.13µm while optics may use older gen. process. Attachment via bumps or wirebonds. Receiver Chip Integration of passive and active silicon devices reduces assembly & cost. Driver Chip External III-Vs: require coupling and alignment (vertical & horizontal) or direct wafer bonding to waveguides. Example hybrid chip Integrated in Silicon Photodetectors DEMUX Taper Passive Align Both monolithic and hybrid chips will need to couple light to the outside world. Lasers MUX Hybrid will offer the best price-performance near term 35

36 Integration: Monolithic? Photonics and electronics processed together on a single wafer Motivations: Performance, e.g. a Photodetector with a Trans-impedance amp Reduced form factor Cost? Filter Photodetector CMOS Circuitry Example monolithic chip ECL TIA TIA Drivers Modulator Passive Alignment Multiple Channels But many challenges for achieving high yield: Tighter thermal budgets, topology, metrology, complexity, etc. Yield issues make monolithic a longer term proposition 36

37 Silicon Photonics Motivation & applications History & progress Intel s s Research Program Future Work Summary 37

38 Where are we going? Optical Fiber Multiplexor 25 modulators at 40Gb/s 25 hybrid lasers An future integrated 1 Tb/s optical link on a single chip 38

39 Integrating into a Tera-scale System This transmitter would be combined with a receiver Rx Tx Which could then be built into an integrated, silicon photonic chip!! 39

40 Integrating into a Tera-scale System This integrated silicon photonic chip could then be integrated into computer boards And this board could be integrated into a Tera- scale system 40

41 Summary Long term, convergence opportunities will be in silicon Silicon photonic device performance advancing at an accelerated pace. Need to continue to push performance (i.e. 40G, 100G ) Next phase of challenges will be with integration. For interconnects, need to optimize electronics & photonics Packaging, power, signaling, and cost will be key If successful volume economics could allow silicon photonics to impact many areas from communications to bio to medicine 41
