Abstract

In this study, two-dimensional photonic structures (triangular, square, and honeycomb) are used to realise chip-to-chip communications in two ways. The transportation of signals from one chip to another is quite plausible because the lower potential value changes from 0.55 to 1.0 V. In this case, the operational mechanisms cope with the investigation of the photonic band gap analysis of the proposed crystal, which is prepared using the plane wave expansion technique. Apart from this, various types of losses such as propagation, diffraction, absorption, and scattering have also been investigated to realise the different efficiencies of the structures. These communications are envisaged through a laser diode (transmitter), photonic crystal structure (waveguide), and photo diode (receiver), which in turn act as a photonic integrated circuit. Here, 0.55 V, 0.62 V, 0.65 V, 0.68 V, 0.72 V, 0.75 V, 0.78 V, 0.8 V, 0.83 V, 0.86 V, 0.88 V, 0.90 V, 0.91 V, 0.92 V, 0.94 V, 0.95 V, 0.97 V, 0.98 V, and 1.0 V have been employed to realise an efficient optical VLSI device. The output result indicates that no loss is accomplished with the photonic integrated circuit, which infers efficient circuits for the exchange of signals from one electronic chip to another.
