Revolutionary Advances in Photonics Integration Being Applied for Optical Communication (RAPIDO)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

Our goal is to develop technology for fast optical communication using revolutionary concepts that challenge the mainstream approaches for photonics integration and packaging. The primary application is optical communication inside high performance computing systems, such as supercomputers and datacenters, but the technologies will also find use in many other applications.Power-efficient InP VCSEL ...

Photonics for High-Performance, Low-Cost & Low-Energy Data Centers, High Performance Computing Systems:Terabit/s Optical Interconnect Technologies for On-Board, Board-to-Board, Rack-to-Rack data links (PhoxTroT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

PhoxTrot is a large-scale research effort focusing on high-performance, low-energy and cost and small-size optical interconnects across the different hierarchy levels in Data Center and High-Performance Computing Systems: on-board, board-to-board and rack-to-rack. PhoxTrot will tackle optical interconnects in a holistic way, synergizing the different fabrication platforms (CMOS electronics, Si-pho ...

ACTive Implant for Optoacoustic Natural sound enhancement (ACTION)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

The ACTION project builds on the recent discovery that relatively low levels of pulsed infrared laser light are capable of triggering activity in hair cells of the partially hearing (hearing impaired) cochlea and vestibule. So far the excessively large volume of optical fibre systems and external light sources used for animal studies prevented the practical use of this discovery for long term anim ...

GIGA BIT ACCESS PASSIVE OPTICAL NETWORK USING WAVELENGTH DIVISION MULTIPLEXING (GigaWaM)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

The need for higher speed is a never ceasing requirement for broadband access and requirement of 1 Gbps is expected around 2016. The copper lines are expected to reach their maximum capacity at about 10 Mbps while the capacity required only for watching one channel of HDTV is 20 Mbps.Tithe total number of homes connected to fibres will grow from about 11 million at the end of 2006 to about 86 mill ...
