The NSW Government will contribute $300 000 to a photonics research project between the ARC Centre of Excellence for Ultrahigh Bandwidth Devices for Optical Systems (CUDOS) at the University of Sydney, and Technion, the Israel institute of technology. Centre Director, Professor Ben Eggleton, said the partnership would allow CUDOS and Technion to work together on fundamental aspects of nanophotonics and towards realising chip-based optical interconnects which can revolutionise computing—dramatically increasing the available bandwidth and, therefore, processing speed.
