SiPh (Silicon Photonics)

Silicon Photonics (SiPh) uses tiny light-based components on silicon chips to transmit data at very high speeds and lower power consumption compared to traditional electronics. By integrating optical fibers with electronic circuits, SiPh enables faster communication within data centers, computers, and communication networks. This technology leverages silicon’s compatibility with existing manufacturing processes, making it scalable and cost-effective. Essentially, SiPh replaces electrical signals with light to boost data transfer rates, improve energy efficiency, and support the growing demand for data processing and connectivity in modern technology.
