The chip has optical circuits, submicrometer scale "tiny strips of silicon called waveguides or photonic wires."
-
The light generated from these tiny lasers can be guided along etched channels called waveguides, and modulated with tiny silicon modulators that have ramped from a few hundred megahertz at the beginning of the millennium up to the current versions which can work at frequencies high enough to transmit 40Gbps on a single channel.
