Thirty years of all-optical signal processing: Materials and device challenges

Research output: Contribution to journal › Meeting Abstract › peer-review

Abstract

In the 1980s all-optical technology was believed essential to overcome the "electronic bottleneck" that limited the speed of data transmitted over fiber networks. This talk reflects on the lessons from that era that still impact all-optical processing
