Reds, Proto,

I agree with the author that POET's chances of "replacing silicon" is almost nonexistant. However, IMO the author pushed the bearish arguement too far making their innovations seem worthless. There is clearly some short term potential for POET tech in RF. In contrast, Lightwave is attempting to complement silicon technologies, not replace it.

Not directly related, IBM will present in a few weeks on polymer waveguide technology:

Polymer Waveguide Based Electro-Optical Assembly Technology for Computing Applications,
R. Dangel, F. Horst, D. Jubin, A. La Porta, N. Meier, J. Weiss and B. J. Offrein, IBM Research, Switzerland
We extend our state-of-the-art multi-mode polymer waveguide technology to single-mode operation at a wavelength of 1300 nm and demonstrate the potential of this single-mode optical PCB technology for the assembly of silicon photonics chips.
