Why Data Centres Are Moving Light Sources Onto the Chip Itself
Optical fibres already carry data between data centre racks at the speed of light, but the electrical wiring inside each switch has become the bottleneck, so engineers are now packing lasers and light-guiding circuits directly onto the same package as the processor.
