巴特尔纪念研究所哥伦布分部将提出一个帮助美国工业界发展基础制造技术,大量生产有源光电子元件的计划。该计划需用7年时间,耗资6000万美元,着重在过程控制与局部地区网络中互联纤维的元件。这些元件执行各种功能,包括开关、分束、放大及调制光信号。 The Battle Research Institute in Columbus will present a plan to help the U.S. industry develop basic manufacturing technologies and mass produce active optoelectronic components. The plan will take seven years and cost US$60 million to focus on interconnecting fiber components in process control and local area networks. These components perform a variety of functions, including switching, splitting, amplifying, and modulating optical signals.
