Design, Manufacture, and Packaging of Parallel Optical Interconnect by the ARPA-Sponsored Optoelectronics Technology Consortium (OETC)

The OETC is developing components for a parallel bus that transmits data words over multiple guided-wave optical channels. Using one optical waveguide per bit, extremely high interconnect densities can be achieved without compromising data rates or suffering from crosstalk between lines.
