Abstract :
This article presents theoretical optical data pathway model. The goal is to evaluate the physics behind photonic crystal/photon relationships and to develop a theoretical model for photonic crystal implementation into very large scale integration (VLSI) system design. One of the most popular applications of photonic crystals is the possibility of creating a new type of optical waveguide that surpasses the capabilities of present day optical communication equipment, i.e., fiber optics. Thus, further research used to determine the bandwidth capabilities of the data highway and clock synchronization between the signal generator and the receiving IC chip and the experiments based on laser diode switching are practiced to increase the speed
