marketed by the major server suppliers and telecommunication networking companies such as Ciena, Juniper, Cisco, Netgear etc. The optoelectronic chip developed here will outperform and other challenging technology by an order of magnitude. Therefore market penetration is assured. This technology platform will also address the other issues in optical routers such as wavelength conversion, optical DRAM, high speed logic within the router processor etc. One can therefore expect a proliferation of communications products based on optoelectronic designs.

$749,972Benefit:
High speed all-optical switching fabrics are critical for next generation optical routers and would be purchased by major telecommunication networking companies such as Ciena, Juniper, Cisco, Netgear etc. The optoelectronic chip developed here will outperform other optical fabrics by an order of magnitude at a substantially reduced cost. Therefore market penetration is assured. This technology platform will also solves other problems related to optical routers such as wavelength conversion, optical DRAM and high speed logic interconnections. This approach to switching fabrics will establish a new direction in the industry.
