STMicroelectronics Unveils Silicon Photonics, BiCMOS Technologies to Power Next-Gen AI Data Centers
STMicroelectronics (ST) is advancing its proprietary silicon photonics (SiPho) and BiCMOS technologies to support optical interconnects in data centers and artificial-intelligence clusters. These developments are meant to allow faster and more energy-efficient solutions, given the growing need for AI computation. Starting in the second half of 2025, the technologies supporting 800-Gb/s and 1.6-Tb/s optical modules should drive production.
