IBM announced this week that it has developed a scalable, silicon nanophotonics chip to improve communications and handle large data centers. The chip uses light pulses between communications servers, racks and supercomputer chips. In the new system, IBM's next-generation chips can exceed the standard 25 Gbps data transmission.
These speeds are possible because the optical components are on the same chip processor. The processor still uses the circuit, the chip converts electronic information, light pulses, and then the transmission between chips. After arriving at a new chip, the light is converted into electricity and then processed again.
"We are basically attacking a fundamental issue," Chief Scientist Solomon Asafa told me. “Communication in computing systems. For example, look at how to search. When someone queries, it goes to a big data center. It doesn't just go to a single processor. You have many racks and processors connected. "But the key innovation is not just technology. This is true, its business and scalability. IBM's research team developed the chip, so it can be extended using traditional manufacturing processes, which is what they have been working on for the past two years because of their breakthroughs.
"So, they will be very cheap," said Asafa. "Especially if you compare them already, this will require the assembly of more complex parts. Our optical device costs will drop to the chip level."
