Slow Light Buffers for Optical Packet Switching: Power Dissipation and Footprint

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We investigate the scaling characteristics of slow light optical buffers for optical packet switching, and compare slow light buffers with future 22-mn eDRAM SiCMOS buffers. The dissipated energy per bit stored in slow light buffers increases quadratically with capacity.
