The support of concurrent operations within the network is discussed and their mapping onto smart-pixel array network interfaces is shown. Choices are considered in the design of the free-space optical interconnect that enables the inter-smart-pixel-array communication. In particular, a system that uses multi- element macro-lenses is studied and results of detailed modeling are given that quantify the smart-pixel density. These results are used, in an illustrative case study of the sorting problem, to compare potential system architectures. This is work in progress and throughout the paper, important issues in the design and use of the intelligent interconnect are raised that require more study.","PeriodicalId":111143,"journal":{"name":"International Topical Meeting on Optics in Computing","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127527676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The matched filtering system (Van Der Lugt 1965) is a prominent example. However, coherent optics is experimentally delicate, not well suited for unfriendly environments. As a reaction to this dilemma some new systems, that use totally incoherent light, have been presented recently. Those systems work reasonably well. But they can handle only real-valued non-negative signals, directly. An alternative approach is to use partially- coherent light. Now the optical system is not anymore as fragile as a coherent system. And the signals, which are now implemented as coherence functions, can be complex, in contrast to incoherent optics. However, the hardware of partially coherent systems is more elaborate.","PeriodicalId":111143,"journal":{"name":"International Topical Meeting on Optics in Computing","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127539801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the important applications of this technique is the study of DNA/RNA hybridization on bio-electronic chips.

There is a need for the rapid and parallel pick-and-place of individual devices to particular locations on a host substrate. In this paper, we present a novel electrochemical system for non-lithographic, field assisted, fluidic pick and place assembly of devices on a silicon substrate by means of electrical and optical addressing.

High speed optical interconnects can be achieved by integrating optoelectronic devices with conventional electronics. Smart pixel arrays have been developed which use optical interconnects. An individual smart pixel cell is composed of a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL), a photodetector, an optical receiver, a laser driver, and digital logic circuitry. Oxide-confined VCSELs are being developed to operate at 850 nm with a threshold current of approximately 1 mA. Multiple quantum well photodetectors are being fabricated from AlGaAs for use with the 850 nm VCSELs. The VCSELs and photodetectors are being integrated with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuitry using flip-chip bonding. CMOS circuitry is being integrated with a 32 X 16 smart pixel array. The 512 smart pixels are serially linked. Thus, an entire data stream may be clocked through the chip and output electrically by the last pixel. Electrical testing is being performed on the CMOS smart pixel array. Using an on-chip pseudo random number generator, a digital data sequence was cycled through the chip verifying operation of the digital circuitry. Although, the prototype chip was fabricated in 1.2 micrometers technology, simulations have demonstrated that the array can operate at 1 Gb/s per pixel using 0.5 micrometers technology.","PeriodicalId":111143,"journal":{"name":"International Topical Meeting on Optics in Computing","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120909216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
