课程简介（中英文）：

CPU的性能每十年增加100倍，而高性能计算系统的性能每十年增加1000倍。快速提升的系统性能是计算机大规模并行化的结果，而这将导致CPU与处理内核之间的通信问题。在该跨学科领域，光互连网络正在成为一种关键技术，涵盖了通信网络和半导体纳米物理学。

网络主题将考虑：云计算，超级计算，社交网络，移动计算的趋势以及如何定义当今和未来的互连网络。能耗如何与基本的电子原理相关联，以及在哪里进行光互连亦很重要。从超大规模集成电路线路向上延伸思考，带宽和能量如何成为所有类型通信网络的限制因素？物理学的主题包括：从能耗和数据带宽的角度来讨论半导体激光器，调制器，接收器的基本原理。此外，将讨论用来设计光互连的电信和数据通信网络的基本器件：光交换机和可重配分插复用器。最后将讨论光电集成，制造技术和市场需求方面的进展。

The performance of computer systems increases with a factor of 1000 every 10 years and the performance of CPUs increases with a factor 100 every ten years. This scaling is the result of massive parallelism in computers and leads to a communication problem between CPUs and processing cores. Optical interconnect networks are emerging as a key technology in this interdisciplinary area, covering communications networks through to semiconductor nanophysics.

Networking topics will consider: How trends in cloud computing, supercomputing, social networking, mobile computing are defining today's and tomorrow's interconnection networks. How energy consumption relates to underlying electronic principles and where optical interconnection is and will be important. How bandwidth and energy have become limiting factors for all types of communication networks, from VLSI wires upwards. Physical component topics will include: The fundamentals of diode lasers, modulators, receivers from the perspective of energy‐use and data bandwidth. Moreover, the photonic switches and reconfigurable add-drop multiplexers will be discussed in order to design the optical interconnected telecom and datacom networks. Progress in optoelectronic integration, fabrication technologies and market requirements will finally be discussed.
