Synopsis
The focus of this topical meeting is to explore new trends and applications, particularly, in the field of silicon photonics, but also in guided-wave optics and related areas. The applications range from devices for data centre applications to Mid Infrared (MIR) sensing. New developments on fibre and planar waveguide lasers, fibre non-linearities, nanophotonic materials and devices will also be welcome.
Topics
Topics include, but are not limited to:
-
design, simulation, modelling and fabrication of optical interconnects
-
optical on chip routing architectures and technologies and related design concepts for high speed
-
low power photonic integrated circuits (PICs)
-
CMOS-compatible optical sources and detectors
-
optimization of light emission and absorption for data processing using materials such as SiGe, SiN, TaO5, III/IVs, etc.
-
advanced monolithic and hybrid processing techniques for the fabrication of photonic structures
-
devices and strategies for the advancement of PICs in silicon and other materials, including advances in testing and packaging
