On this episode of the @HPCpodcast, sponsored by CoolIT, we meet up with optical I/O skilled and repeat visitor Professor Keren Bergman to talk about the newest developments in the fast paced and promising world of optical applied sciences: co-packaged photonics/opto-electronics/silicon photonics/photonic built-in circuits (PICs)/optical I/O and optical computing.
She is the Charles Batchelor Professor of Electrical Engineering, College Director of the Columbia Nano Initiative, and Principal Investigator of Lightwave Research Laboratory at Columbia College.
She additionally is the recipient of the 2016 IEEE Photonics Engineering Award and is a Fellow of Optica (Optical Society of America) and IEEE.
Professor Bergman offers her take on how silicon photonics had progressed since her first look April 2023(@HPCpodcast episode 54). There is appreciable pleasure round (and funding in) the potential of silicon photonics, which can be poised to ship considerably sooner chip-to-chip information motion whereas decreasing warmth inside servers and information facilities.
In accordance to Professor Bergman, the know-how is progressing nicely, she offers her forecast for business viability and likewise the sensible impression of silicon photonics on chip and server efficiency and on information heart cooling.
She additionally discusses the know-how’s adoption by chip makers in China and its impression on that nation’s technique for attaining independence from western (and western-aligned) chip know-how designers, producers and coverage makers.
We additionally talk about the startup Xscape Photonics, co-founded by Professor Bergman.
