Imec demonstrates hybrid FinFET-silicon photonics technology for ultra-low power optical I/O

By Matthew Peach

At its Imec Technology Forum USA in San Francisco, earlier in July, imec, the world-leading research and innovation hub in nano-electronics and digital technology, announced that it has demonstrated ultra-low power, high-bandwidth optical transceivers through hybrid integration of silicon photonics and FinFET CMOS technologies. With a dynamic power consumption of only 230fJ/bit and a footprint […]
