Specification for a reconfigurable optoelectronic VLSI processor suitable for digital signal processing
Abstract:
A concept for a parallel digital signal processor based on opticalinterconnections and optoelectronic VLSI circuits is presented. Itis shown that the proper combination of optical communication, architecture, and algorithms allows a throughput that outperformspurely electronic solutions. The usefulness of low-level algorithmsfrom the add-and-shift class is emphasized. These algorithms leadto fine-grain, massively parallel on-chip processor architectures withhigh demands for optical off-chip interconnections. A comparativeperformance analysis shows the superiority of a bit-serialarchitecture. This architecture is mapped onto an optoelectronicthree-dimensional circuit, and the necessary optical interconnectionscheme is specified.

Semiconductors
Metals such as copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), or lead (Pb) have low resistivity and feature conduction bands that are either not fully occupied or overlap with the valence band, making a bandgap non-existent. This allows electrons in the highest energy levels of the valence band to easily transition to the conduction band upon gaining...
