By integrating optical modules and the switch chip on the same substrate, CPO shortens the electrical interconnection distance, effectively solving the problems of high power consumption and poor signal integrity of traditional pluggable optical modules under high bandwidth. However, the surge in power density and the thermal crosstalk resulting from high integration density make thermal management one of the key challenges that constrain the reliability of high-capacity co-packaged optics. For the unique architecture of CPO, this study analyzes its heat dissipation needs in detail, and a thermal management scheme is designed. The thermal management scheme is simulated and optimized based on the Navier-Stokes equation. The simulation results show that, in a 51.2 Tbit/s CPO system, the junction temperature of the switch chip is 97.3 °C, the maximum junction temperature of the optical modules is 31.3 °C, and the temperature difference between the optical modules is 2.4 °C to 1.2 °C. To verify the simulation results, a thermal test experimental platform is built, and the experimental results show that the temperature simulation difference is within 4% and the pressure change trend is consistent with the simulation. Combining the experimental data and simulation results, the designed heat sink can satisfy the heat dissipation demands of the 51.2 Tbit/s bandwidth CPO system. This conclusion demonstrates the potential of liquid-cooling technology in CPO, providing support for research on liquid-cooling technology in the CPO.

As a promising photonic integration platform, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) has the advantage of complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) compatibility, low-loss, compact size as well as large optical nonlinearities. In this paper, we review the recent progress in the project granted to develop silicon-based reconfigurable AOSP chips, which aims to combine the merits of AOSP and silicon photonics to solve the unsustainable cost and energy challenges in future communication and big data applications. Three key challenges are identified in this project: (1) how to finely manipulate and reconfigure optical fields, (2) how to achieve ultra-low loss integrated silicon waveguides and significant enhancement of nonlinear effects, (3) how to mitigate crosstalk between optical, electrical and thermal components. By focusing on these key issues, the following major achievements are realized during the project. First, ultra-low loss silicon-based waveguides as well as ultra-high quality microresonators are developed by advancing key fabrication technologies as well as device structures. Integrated photonic filters with bandwidth and free spectral range reconfigurable in a wide range were realized to finely manipulate and select input light fields with a high degree of freedom. Second, several mechanisms and new designs that aim at nonlinear enhancement have been proposed, including optical ridge waveguides with reverse biased PIN junction, slot waveguides, multimode waveguides and parity-time symmetry coupled microresonators. Advanced AOSP operations are verified with these novel designs. Logical computations at 100 Gbit/s were demonstrated with self-developed, monolithic integrated programmable optical logic array. High-dimensional multi-value logic operations based on the four-wave mixing effect are realized. Multi-channel all-optical amplitude and phase regeneration technology is developed, and a multi-channel, multi-format, reconfigurable all-optical regeneration chip is realized. Expanding regeneration capacity via spatial dimension is also verified. Third, the crosstalk from optical as well as thermal coupling due to high-density integration are mitigated by developing novel optical designs and advanced packaging technologies, enabling high-density, small size, multi-channel and multi-functional operation with low power consumption. Finally, four programmable AOSP chips are developed, i.e., programmable photonic filter chip, programmable photonic logic operation chip, multi-dimensional all-optical regeneration chip, and multi-channel and multi-functional AOSP chip with packaging.

In our study on male mice, we show a gradual increase in the brain amyloid beta (Aβ) levels and a decrease in brain drainage with age, which, however, is associated with a decline in cognitive function only in old (24 months of age) mice but not in middle-aged (12 months of age) and young (3 month of age) animals.

These results clearly demonstrate that the PBM effects on cognitive function are correlated with age-mediated changes in the MLV network and may be effective if the MLV function is preserved.
