CU Nanophotonics Research Overview:
We are interested in nanophotonic device concepts and circuit design motivated by challenges in system level applications in areas including telecommunications, on-chip interconnects, sensing and imaging, energy conversion and control, and classical and quantum computation and information processing. We are generally interested in first-principles innovation in device design using new physical principles in photonics as well as at the interface of nanophotonics, nanomechanics, solid-state and quantum electronics, and other fields. Our research involves rigorous theory and design of novel devices and concepts, and the experimental study and characterization of fabricated proof-of-concept device chips. For more information see research.

Stojanovic, who leads one of the MIT teams collaborating on the project
and who is the lead principal investigator for the overall research
program, said the group’s work on optical modulators is a significant
step forward.
“On top of the energy-efficiency and bandwidth-density advantages of silicon-photonics over electrical wires, photonics integrated into CMOS processes with no process changes provides enormous cost-benefits and advantage over traditional photonic systems,” Stojanovic said.
The CU-led effort is a part of a larger project on building a complete photonic processor-memory system, which includes research teams from MIT led by Stojanovic, Rajeev Ram and Michael Watts, a team from Micron Technology led by Roy Meade and a team from the University of California, Berkeley, led by Krste Asanovic.

This project is investigating the integration
of photonics in SOI and bulk CMOS processes. The throughput bounds of
traditional interconnect networks in microprocessors are being pushed to
their limits. In past single-core processors, the number of long global
wires constituted only a small fraction of the total. However, with the
emergence of multi-core systems, where each core must communicate with
each other as well as with off-chip memory, global interconnects have
become a major bottleneck. The solution has been proposed through
integrated photonic networks[1, 3], where multiple channels of
information can be placed onto a single low-latency waveguide, reducing
the number of interconnects and increasing the link bandwidth and
efficiency. We are developing methods to integrate this exciting new
technology from the transistor and circuit level through to the system
architecture level.
