Read CEO, Adam Carter's article on AI in CIE magazine

Adam Carter, CEO of OpenLight, has had his article, “AI’s unrelenting power demands drive the need for optics”, published in the June issue of Components in Electronics magazine.

The article considers the AI architecture required for 200Gbps per lane bandwidths and beyond. Photonics must replace electronics for front-end, ethernet-type connections and back-end, datacenter interconnects. To meet scale, cost, and power requirements, this must be as integrated solutions instead of component assemblies. Photonic Integrated Circuits are demonstrating promising, 200G results, but a transition from silicon to Indium Phosphide (InP), or other new materials, is also considered essential for the next level of performance.

OpenLight's InP-based heterogeneous integration offers high-speed modulation in a compact, thermally insensitive, low-power device. It looks like being the evolution which enables high-performance interconnects in next-generation computing and AI applications.
