目前，在大型强子对撞机（LHC）[1]的所有四个实验中都安装了数万条光学数据传输链路，用于向探测器系统传输定时、控制和读出数据。已经开始确定能够满足高亮度大型强子对撞机（HL-LHC）要求的新技术和光学元件；计划在10年内将LHC的亮度提高大约一个数量级。硅光子学是HL-LHC研究未来数据传输应用的新技术之一。硅光子电路，其组件可以抵抗HL-LHC[2]的恶劣辐射环境，可能对HL-LHC应用感兴趣，因为它具有潜在的小尺寸，高速度和低功耗。高强度强子对撞机应用的耐辐射组件必须承受比其他环境（如空间）高几个数量级的辐射水平，无论是在非电离辐射还是电离辐射方面。
Tens of thousands of optical data transmission links are currently installed in all four experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) [1] for the transmission of timing, control and read-out data to and from the detector systems. Work has started on identifying new technologies and optical components which could meet the requirements of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC); an upgrade of approximately of an order of magnitude to the luminosity of the LHC planned to take place in 10 years time. Silicon photonics is one of the newly available technologies being investigated for future data transmission applications at the HL-LHC. A silicon photonics circuit, with components that can resist the harsh radiation environments of the HL-LHC [2], could be of interest to HL-LHC applications because of its potentially small size, high speed, and low power consumption. Radiation tolerant components for HL-LHC applications must withstand radiation levels several orders of magnitude higher, both in terms of non-ionizing and ionizing radiation, than other environments (e.g. space) where radiation is a concern.
