High-speed interconnects are needed to link, transmit, retrieve, and process intensive data in a time- and energy-efficient and cost-effective manner in data centres and high-performance computing. This project aims to investigate high-speed, integrated interconnects, including novel integrated devices and transceivers on silicon platforms, flexible subsystems and overall system architecture. The research outcomes will be beneficial to a number of industries including integrated chip and circuit design and fabrication, integrated systems, and network infrastructures, and will enable faster platforms for cloud computing, sensing, signal processing, and computational health.Read moreRead less

Universal optical transmitter for rapid prototyping and system emulation: This Project proposes an integrated, multi-user facility for the generation of extremely wide-bandwidth optical communication signals that will help to dramatically improve the data-handling capability of optical fibres and improve the energy efficiency of optical communication networks. The project will modulate the input of an advanced optical transmitter with multi-level, multi-phase signals at multi-Gb/s rates to generate 'higher-order' modulation formats at multi- terra bits per second rates including orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), Nyquist-wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM), regular WDM and Optical Time-Division Multiplexing (OTDM). With this transmitter the project will investigate advanced optical communications concepts including 'constellations' of phase and intensity, limitations of nonlinearity in optical fibres, signal regeneration, and all-optical routing.Read moreRead less
