[Special Talk] Silicon photonics for high-density optical interconnects and telecom applications
Koji Yamada (NTT)
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Silicon (Si) photonics technology, which has a DNA of Si electronics technology, would provide a promising photonics-electronics integration platform with superior mass-productivity and cost performance. Using this technology, various photonic devices, such as filters, modulators and detectors, have been developed and are now monolithically integrated on a Si chip. Moreover, photonics-electronics convergence is now being developed intensively. Ultra-compact photonics-electronics module based on this technology would significantly contribute to the construction of energy-efficient, cost-effective information trading systems. Considering material characteristics of Si and present fabrication technology, however, these advantages show trade-off relation to device performances. In this paper, at first, we review the present status of Si photonics technology, and reveal its pros and cons. Then, we discuss about technological obstacles to the practical applications of Si photonics as a multi-purpose photonic integration platform.
