5. Silicon photonics: What is it?
Silicon photonics is the technology to integrate a large number of optical functions on a chip using the fabrication technology and tools of the CMOS industry
Silicon photonics offers a route towards high volume manufacturing at potentially low cost per device

6. Different schemes for photonic-electronic integration

7. Silicon photonics: Why now?

8. Even Artificial Intelligence
Schematic representation of our two-layer ONN experiment. The programmable nanophotonic processor is used four times to implement the deep neural network protocol

9. Exponential growth in data transfer volumes on communications networks
The Need
It is expected to continue increasing in the foreseeable future
5G is around the corner allowing 20Gbps (vs. 1Gbps in 4G) and the Data Centers can't cope
Exponential growth in data transfer volumes on communications networks
The current solutions are not good enough. Traditional electronics won't suffice as it involves too slow throughput, high power consumption that creates heat and heat-dissipation issues, latency and overall a business model that doesn’t work as it is not cost effective

10. The Silicon Photonics Solution
Silicon photonics – i.e. optical solution to replace traditional electronics
An All-Optics photonic transceiver
no CPU or DSP needed
low power consumption
No heat dissipation issues
Very economical
Single laser diode
Speeds of 400Gbps today
Next generation: over 1.2T
Very small footprint
Uses regular Fab
Low cost of manufacturing
The industry (e.g. Intel) managed to get only up to 100Gbps and even that with 4 lasers
We have a world breakthrough. This will change the face of the communication world!

11. All optical filter banks: all optical signal processing, wavelet/multiwavelet based OFDM
Silicon photonic based passive filter bank for the all optical implementation of the difference equations for the purpose of the all optical signal processing.
