Abstract
In a multi-chip module and method, the multi-chip module includes a carrier; a multimode optical waveguide formed on and/or in the carrier; a first and second chip disposed on the carrier and coupled to the multimode optical waveguide; wherein the first chip is configured to transmit light beams into the multimode optical waveguide; the multimode optical waveguide is configured to generate mixed light beams that are an at least partial superposition of the light beams; the second chip is configured to receive the mixed light beams from the multimode optical waveguide; and the second chip is configured to store a representation of the received mixed light beams as a transmission signature and/or as a cryptographic key in a memory associated with the second chip, and/or compare the representation of the received mixed light beams with a target representation stored in the memory associated with the second chip.
