The Challenge of Creating Efficient and Compatible Light Sources with Silicon Chips
While silicon chips are excellent in driving light source chips and modulating light intensity, efficiently creating light sources compatible with silicon chips for use in communication requires exotic methods that compromise its interface capability with transistors.

Summary
Silicon is extremely difficult to make an efficient light source without doing things that will reduce its ability to work with transistors. The compound semiconductor light sources that would be ideal have difficulties being integrated with silicon, making digital computing usage of light challenging.
