More Efficient On-Chip Laser Frequency Comb (Harvard)
By Technical Paper Link - 15 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "High-efficiency and broadband on-chip electro-optic frequency comb generators" was published by researchers at Harvard, Stanford, Caltech, and Hyperlight. The research claims the electro-optic frequency device is 100% more efficient and has 2X the bandwidth of previous technology.    According to Harvard's news release, "the latest research applies the two con... » read more

UC Berkeley: New Semiconductor Laser Delivering Power with Scalability
By Technical Paper Link - 04 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

U.C. Berkeley scientists demonstrated a Berkeley Surface Emitting Lasers (BerkSELs), a long-sought breakthrough in scaling laser size with power. “Increasing both size and power of a single-mode laser has been a challenge in optics since the first laser was built in 1960,” said research team leader Boubacar Kanté, Chenming Hu Associate Professor at Berkeley. “Six decades later, we show ... » read more

Chipmakers Getting Serious About Integrated Photonics
By Brian Bailey - 12 Jul, 2021 - Comments: 3

Integrating photonics into semiconductors is gaining traction, particularly in heterogeneous multi-die packages, as chipmakers search for new ways to overcome power limitations and deal with increasing volumes of data. Power has been a growing concern since the end of Dennard scaling, which happened somewhere around the 90nm node. There are more transistors per mm², and the wires are thinne... » read more

What Makes A Chip Tamper-Proof?
By Bryon Moyer - 04 Jun, 2020 - Comments: 5

The cyber world is the next major battlefield, and attackers are busily looking for ways to disrupt critical infrastructure. There is widespread proof this is happening. “Twenty-six percent of the U.S. power grid was found to be hosting Trojans," said Haydn Povey, IAR Systems' general manager of embedded security solutions. "In a cyber-warfare situation, that's the first thing that would b... » read more

Power/Performance Bits: May 5

Measuring molecules The Technical University of Munich (TUM) has developed a new metrology technique that determines the properties of individual molecules. The technique, called single-molecule excitation–emission spectroscopy, improves upon the traditional methods to explore molecules. The traditional method, dubbed single-molecule spectroscopy (SMS), is not new and is used to analyze f... » read more

China’s powerful laser The Shanghai Superintense-Ultrafast Lasers Facility (SULF) in China claims to have demonstrated the world’s most powerful laser. The ultra-intense, ultra-fast laser is said to have delivered a peak power of more than five petawatts. This is supposedly the largest peak-power laser pulse ever measured on record. A petawatt is equivalent to one quadrillion watts. ... » read more

Microbunching EUV Researchers at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have provided a status report on its ongoing efforts to develop a steady-state microbunching (SSMB) technology. SSMB is a technology used within a storage ring, which is a large-scale, circular particle accelerator. An SSMB mechanism produces a high-power radiation source within the ring. This, in turn, could enable a... » read more
