Summary
The electro-photonic interchange: a new green platform for communications signal processing. This project will deliver the science for a new generation of green optical networks, by identifying optimum combinations of electronic and photonic signal processing to solve fundamental data bottlenecks. This project will implement these technologies in powerful electro-photonic chips, upon which superior energy-efficient internet switches can be built.

Ultra-fast optoelectronic characterisation for optical and wireless systems:
The project aims to establish an ultra-fast optoelectronic characterisation facility to measure a wide range of electronic and photonic signals, providing versatile tools for conducting research on ultra-high-speed optical communications, microwave photonics, and millimetre wave systems. There is an increasing need for parallel signalling using spatial, temporal and spectral degrees of freedom in both radio-frequency and optical communications. The facility expects to leverage the recent rapid advances in powerful silicon digital signal processors with unprecedented capabilities in bandwidth and accuracy and focus on detecting massively parallel signals. The project aims to support a wide range of research activities from sustaining the phenomenal Internet growth in telecommunications to strengthening Australia’s defence systems.Read moreRead less

CMOS compatible nonlinear photonic integrated circuits. Bandwidth and energy demands of telecommunications networks are rapidly reaching a crisis point technologically, economically and from a sustainability viewpoint. At the same time, on-chip interconnects for silicon integrated circuits are also reaching a bottleneck. This project aims to combine the expertise of eight leading international groups to pioneer nonlinear photonic integrated circuits compatible with silicon technology (Complement ....CMOS compatible nonlinear photonic integrated circuits. Bandwidth and energy demands of telecommunications networks are rapidly reaching a crisis point technologically, economically and from a sustainability viewpoint. At the same time, on-chip interconnects for silicon integrated circuits are also reaching a bottleneck. This project aims to combine the expertise of eight leading international groups to pioneer nonlinear photonic integrated circuits compatible with silicon technology (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor technology, or CMOS) to achieve new capabilities on a chip for signal generation, processing and measurement for telecommunications, computers, and fundamental science. These platforms are expected to allow the integration of electronics with photonics and to be faster, cheaper, smaller, and more energy efficient than current technology.Read moreRead less
