Micro-combs: A novel generation of optical sources

In this framework, the demonstration of planar high-Q resonators, compatible with silicon technology Indeed, it is well acknowledged by the electronics industry that future generations of computer processing chips will inevitably require an extremely high density of copper-based interconnections, significantly increasing the chip power dissipation to beyond practical levels On-chip optical networks, or optical interconnects, can offer high speed and low energy pertransferred-bit, and micro-resonators are widely seen as a key component to interface the electronic world with photonics.
