Intel Silicon Photonics

Intel silicon photonics platform combining photonic integrated circuits and on-chip lasers for optical connectivity products. Optical compute interconnect remains part of this platform, not a separate listing.

Official Intel pages present the technology as combining photonic integrated circuits with on-chip lasers and high-volume silicon manufacturing, with products used in pluggable optical transceivers for data-center networking. Intel also describes continued work on optical I/O approaches, including demonstrated optical compute interconnect chiplets, built on the same photonics platform. Those optical I/O demonstrations are not a separate Silicon Showcase listing. Module specifications, reach options and product status should be confirmed on Intel’s silicon photonics pages.
