| Abstract | An implementable optical backplane interconnect technology for data processors is proposed and a design is set forth using wavelength controls of lasers in a quantum-well waveguide grating surface-emitter tunable laser approach. This prototype device development constitutes a switchable, all-optical crossbar switch. A switch was sized to accommodate an array of processors and memories suitable for direct replacement into the basic avionic multiprocessor backplane. This design performs an optical interconnect with a 32*32 GSE (grating surface emitting) array from any row of one array to any row of a second array by scanning a laser drive through a wavelength range of approximately 20 nm. Each array can be used as both transmitter and receiver in either a simplex or duplex configuration. With a design BER (bit error rate) requirement of 10E-9 at a 100-MHz data rate, a laser power of 12 mW will overcome the optical losses of the GSE array waveguide, directional coupler, modulator, and grating output coupler. It is concluded that this design will simplify parallel switching, increase data transfer rate capability, and maintain an increase in data transfer rates while allowing expansion of interconnect of data processors. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
