Computer Aided Design and Simulation of Free Space Optoelectronic Information Processing Systems

9616879 Levitan这是匹兹堡大学和加州大学圣地亚哥分校（UCSD）研究人员之间的合作项目。 该项目的目标是为混合技术自由空间光电信息处理系统提供设计分析和虚拟原型工具。 设计工具将基于匹兹堡大学目前在光电信号和器件建模和仿真方面的工作，以及UCSD的器件制造、建模和测试。 这些努力将扩大到包括功能，物理和参数模型的设备和互连使用的框架，将支持这些模型的组成到完整的系统。 由此产生的光电系统原型工具套件将提供给学术界，并有望加速光子技术在传统微电子应用中的插入。 ***

9616879 Levitan This is a collaborative project between researchers at the Univ. of Pittsburgh, and the Univ. of California at San Diego (UCSD). The goal of the project is to produce design analysis and virtual prototyping tools for mixed technology free space optoelectronic information processing systems. The design tools will be based on current work in modeling and simulation of optoelectronic signals and devices at the Univ. of Pittsburgh, and device fabrication, modeling and testing at UCSD. These efforts will be expanded to include functional, physical and parametric models for devices and interconnections using a framework that will support the composition of these models into complete systems. The resulting optoelectronic system prototyping tool suite will be made available to the academic community, and is expected to accelerate the insertion of photonics technology in traditionally microelectronic applications. ***
