Engineers create photonic switch that overcomes routing size-speed tradeoffs

Engineers at the University of Pennsylvania have developed a new photonic switch that significantly enhances the capabilities of optical communication systems by overcoming traditional trade-offs between routing size, speed, and efficiency. This innovative switch uses a unique design involving a silicon-based platform with a "photonic crystal" structure, which allows for the manipulation of light at the nanoscale. The switch can route light signals with high speed and low loss, addressing the limitations of previous photonic switches that either operated slowly or required large, power-intensive setups. This breakthrough could lead to more efficient data centers, faster internet connections, and improved optical computing technologies, potentially revolutionizing how data is transmitted and processed in various tech applications.
