Abstract

Free-space optical interconnects represent a solution to the needs of future connection-intensive digital systems such as ATM switching systems, and massively parallel processing computer systems. These systems will require the large board-to-board connectivity provided by an optical backplane which uses two-dimensional arrays of passive, free-space, Parallel Optical Channels (POCs) to optically interconnect electronic Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) and/or Multi-Chip Modules(MCMs). Such a backplane could be capable of supporting terabit/second aggregate capacities with connectivity levels on the order of 10,000 input/output channels per PCB.
