The development of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things drives the growth of demand for optical data transmission

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), the demand for more powerful, low-energy-consuming hardware continues to grow. Optical data transmission has become the preferred solution for long distances because it can transmit large amounts of data over longer distances with lower energy losses, and even shows its advantages at shorter distances. In the future, optical chips may integrate low-cost photonic integrated circuits (PICs), bringing significant cost reduction and performance improvement.
